Bishydrazone ligand and its Zn-complex: synthesis, characterization and estimation of scalability inhibition mitigation effectiveness for API 5L X70 carbon steel in 3.5% NaCl solutions

Bishydrazone ligand, 2,2'-thiobis(N'-((E)-thiophen-2-ylmethylene) acetohydrazide), H2TTAH and its Zn- complex were prepared and characterized through elemental analysis and various spectroscopic performances as well as (IR, 1H and 13C NMR, mass and (UV-Vis) measurements. The synthesized complex exhibited the molecular formula [Zn2(H2TTAH)(OH)4(C5H5N)3C2H5OH] (Zn-H2TTAH). To assess their potential as anti-corrosion materials, the synthesized particles were assessed for their effectiveness for API 5L X70 C-steel corrosion in a 3.5% NaCl solution using electrochemical methods such as potentiodynamic polarization (PP) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Additionally, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) was employed to examine the steel surface treated with the tested inhibitors, confirming the establishment of an adsorbed protecting layer. The results obtained from the PP plots indicated that both H2TTAH and Zn-H2TTAH act as mixed-type inhibitors. At a maximum concentration of 1 × 10-4 M, H2TTAH and Zn-H2TTAH exhibited inhibition efficiencies of 93.4% and 96.1%, respectively. The adsorption of these inhibitors on the steel surface followed the Langmuir adsorption isotherm, and it was determined to be chemisorption. DFT calculations were achieved to regulate the electron donation ability of H2TTAH and Zn-H2TTAH molecules. Additionally, Monte Carlo (MC) simulations were conducted to validate the adsorption configurations on the steel surface and gain insight into the corrosion inhibition mechanism facilitated by these molecules.

Nickel-Catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura Coupling in Water for the Synthesis of 2-Aryl Allyl Phosphonates and Sulfones

An operationally simple and green protocol using a NiSO4·6H2O/cationic 2,2'-bipyridyl ligand system as a water-soluble catalyst for the coupling of arylboronic acids with (2-haloallyl)phosphonates and (2-haloallyl)sulfones in water under air was developed. The reaction was performed at 120 °C with arylboronic acids (2 mmol) and (2-haloallyl)phosphonates or sulfones (1 mmol) in the presence of 5 mol % of the Ni catalytic system in a basic aqueous solution for 1 h, giving the corresponding 2-aryl allyl phosphonates or sulfones in good to excellent yields. This reaction features the use of an abundant transition metal as a catalyst in water and exhibits high functional group tolerance, rendering it an eco-friendly procedure.

Reactions and Biological Activities of Hydrazonoyl Halides

This review covers the literature information on the chemistry of hydrazonoyl halides with different substrates to give heterocyclic compounds. From the foregoing survey, it seems this provides a useful and convenient strategy for the synthesis of numerous heterocyclic derivatives. The subject of such reactions is still ongoing and undoubtedly will provide new fused functionalized compounds of both industrial and biological interest. A literature survey revealed that a great deal of interest has been focused on the synthesis of functionalized heterocyclic compounds due to their wide range of biological activities, such as contact dermatitis, anthelmintic, antiviral, antimicrobial, herbicidal, and anti-cancer. On the other hand, hydrazonoyl halides are interesting synthons for valuable bioactive heterocyclic compounds. The reaction of hydrazonoyl halides with various types of substrates gave a huge number of different heterocyclic systems. In this review, we collected all reactions of hydrazonoyl halides with different moieties and classified them as aryl diazo of monoheterocycles, aryldiazo of 5,5-bis-heterocycles, aryldiazo of 5,6-bis-heterocycles, aryldiazo of 6,6-bis-heterocycles, aryldiazo of 5,5,6-tri-heterocycles, aryldiazo of 5,6,6-tri-heterocycles, aryldiazo of 6,6,6-tri-heterocycles, hetero annulation of bisheterocycles, hetero annulation of tri-heterocycles, hetero-annulation of tetra-heterocycles, synthesis of spiro-heterocycles, heterocyclic ring transformations, and 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions catalyzed by transition metals using hydrazonoyl halides as substrates.Most reaction types have been successfully applied and used in the production of biologically active compounds. The aim of the present survey is to consider in the reader the opportunity interactions and biological activities of hydrazonoyl halides. The information of several artificial paths and varied physics-chemical factors of such heterocycles made a special consideration of chemists in different fields to yield a combinatorial library and carry out thorough efforts in the search for hydrazonoyl halides.

Novel Pyrazole-Based Transition Metal Complexes: Spectral, Photophysical, Thermal and Biological Studies

A novel bioactive Schiff base (HL) named 3-methyl-1-phenyl-5-((5-nitrosalicylidene)amino)pyrazole was prepared by condensing 5-amino-3-methyl-1-phenylpyrazole with 5-nitrosalicyldehyde in methanol on a heating mantle in refluxing condition for 1 h. Some transition metal complexes of the ligand in (1 : 1) and (1 : 2) have also been prepared by condensing the metal acetate salt with the synthesized Schiff base. The Schiff base and metal complexes were characterized by different physiochemical techniques, i. e., 1 H-NMR, InfraRed, mass spectroscopy, elemental analysis, Ultraviolet-Visible, Cyclic voltammetry, electronic spectra and Electron spin resonance. The presence of water molecules in the complexes have been calculated with the help of thermogravimetric analysis. Kinetic parameters such that entropy change, enthalpy change and activation energy have been calculated with the help of Coats-Redfern equations. Fluorescence spectra showed enhancement in the fluorescence signal of the metal complexes. Square planar geometry for the copper complexes and octahedral geometry for the other metal complexes have been proposed with help of various methods. Biological activities of all the compounds have been carried out and the results disclosed that the metal complexes have high biological activity than the Schiff base having MIC value in the range 25-3.12 μg/mL and mycelial growth inhibition 60.82-96.98 %.
