Microwave-Induced Synthesis of Chitosan Schiff Bases and Their Application as Novel and Green Corrosion Inhibitors: Experimental and Theoretical Approach.

ABSTRACT: Environmentally friendly three chitosan Schiff bases (CSBs) were first time synthesized under microwave irradiation by the reaction of chitosan and aldehydes [benzaldehyde (CSB-1), 4-(dimethylamino)benzaldehyde (CSB-2), and 4-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzaldehyde (CSB-3)] and characterized by IR and NMR spectroscopy. The corrosion inhibition performance of the synthesized inhibitors was studied by the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and potentiodynamic polarization (PDP). The results show that all the Schiff bases (CSBs) act as effective corrosion inhibitors for mild steel in 1 M HCl solution. Among the synthesized Schiff bases, CSB-3 exhibited the maximum inhibition efficiency of 90.65% at a very low concentration of 50 ppm. The EIS results showed that the CSBs inhibit corrosion by the adsorption mechanism. The PDP results show that all the three Schiff bases are mixed-type inhibitors. The formation of inhibitor films on the mild steel surface was supported by scanning electron microscopy/energy dispersive X-ray analysis and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy methods. The adsorption of CSBs on the mild steel surface obeys the Langmuir adsorption isotherm. The theoretical studies via density functional theory and molecular dynamics simulation corroborated the experimental results.

Project description:BackgroundUrease belongs to the family of amid hydrolases with two nickel atoms in their core structure. On the basis of literature survey, this research work is mainly focused on the study of bis-Schiff base derivatives of benzyl phenyl ketone nucleus.ObjectiveSynthesis of benzyl phenyl ketone based bis-Schiff bases in search of potent urease inhibitors.MethodIn the current work, bis-Schiff bases were synthesized through two steps reaction by reacting benzyl phenyl ketone with excess of hydrazine hydrate in ethanol solvent in the first step to get the desired hydrazone. In last, different substituted aromatic aldehydes were refluxed in catalytic amount of acetic acid with the desired hydrazone to obtain bis-Schiff base derivatives in tremendous yields. Using various spectroscopic techniques including FTIR, HR-ESI-MS, and 1H NMR spectroscopy were used to clarify the structures of the created bis-Schiff base derivatives.ResultsThe prepared compounds were finally screened for their in-vitro urease inhibition activity. All the synthesized derivatives (3-9) showed excellent to less inhibitory activity when compared with standard thiourea (IC50 = 21.15 ± 0.32 µM). Compounds 3 (IC50 = 22.21 ± 0.42 µM), 4 (IC50 = 26.11 ± 0.22 µM) and 6 (IC50 = 28.11 ± 0.22 µM) were found the most active urease inhibitors near to standard thiourea among the synthesized series. Similarly, compound 5 having IC50 value of 34.32 ± 0.65 µM showed significant inhibitory activity against urease enzyme. Furthermore, three compounds 7, 8, and 9 exhibited less activity with IC50 values of 45.91 ± 0.14, 47.91 ± 0.14, and 48.33 ± 0.72 µM respectively. DFT used to calculate frontier molecular orbitals including; HOMO and LUMO to indicate the charge transfer from molecule to biological transfer, and MEP map to indicate the chemically reactive zone suitable for drug action. The electron localization function (ELF), non-bonding orbitals, AIM charges are also calculated. The docking study contributed to the analysis of urease protein binding.
