The anti-corrosive behavior of benzo-fused N-heterocycles: an in silico study toward developing organic corrosion inhibitors

Abstract

The gradual introduction of nitrogen atoms is not a straightforward factor in controlling the inhibition efficiency of BFNH inhibitors. For example, phthalazine (Phz) is a better inhibitor than benzo[e][1,2,3]tetrazine (Btr).
