Abstract
A convenient synthesis of a novel 1,3,4-oxadiazole derivative, specifically known as, 2-(5-methylthiophen-2-yl)-5-(pyridin-3-yl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole (MTPO), is reported along with a comprehensive evaluation of its ability to inhibit the corrosion of mild steel (MS) in a 1 N HCl environment using weight loss, EIS, PDP, SEM, EDX, and UV–Vis spectroscopy. The investigated inhibitor expressed excellent inhibition efficiency (99.05% at 500 ppm, 298 K) with a mixed-type inhibitory mechanism as demonstrated by the PDP technique. Furthermore, MTPO followed Langmuir adsorption isotherm, which provides insights into the adsorption phenomena, demonstrating that it exhibits superior adsorption behavior on the MS surface compared. In silico investigations, using DFT computation and MD simulation complements the experimental outcomes revealing strong adsorbing attributes of the MTPO hybrid with the ω − and ω + values of 8.8882 eV and 4.4787 eV, respectively. In addition, the radial distribution function also addressed the chemisorption behavior of MTPO. This article also takes into consideration the various ways in which the inhibitor interacts with the mild steel, offering potential insights for developing strategies to mitigate metal dissolution in acidic environments.
