Abstract

Two azo compounds were produced, and their chemical properties were validated using spectroscopic methods (mass and 1H NMR). A potential dynamic polarization approach was employed to evaluate the synthesized derivatives as corrosionreducing materials for carbon steel in a 1 M HCl solution. The derived products, (E)-4-((3-(tert-butyl)-2-hydroxy-5-methoxyphenyl)diazenyl)-N-(5-methylisoxazol-3-yl)benzenesulfonamide (I) and (E)-4-((2-hydroxynaphthalen-1-yl)diazenyl)-N-(5-methylisoxazol-3-yl)benzenesulfonamide (II) achieved 89.9% and 83.02% inhibition rates at 5 × 10−3 M concentrations, Langmuir was aligned with the isotherm adsorptions of these materials. Density functional theory was employed to assess the quantum chemical characteristics of azo-based inhibitors. A conceptual assessment was performed using DFT/B3LYP 6-311+G (d,p) to evaluate the structure of the molecule, its physical and chemical properties, and the electronic factors that impact its inhibitory significance. The DFT outcomes were aligned with the practical records.

Abstract

Five azo compounds, including N-(3-hydroxyphenyl) maleimide, were synthesized and characterized using FT-IR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, and mass spectroscopy. The compounds were evaluated for antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa using the disk diffusion method. The screening results showed that the azo compounds tested were effective against the bacteria tested, particularly Staphylococcus aureus. The geometry optimization of the molecular structures and the energy calculations for compounds 1-5 were performed using the density functional approach. Molecular docking was conducted to examine the interaction of the synthesized compound 1 with two bacterial receptors and one viral receptor (neuraminidase). It was found that they would target the PDB:4CJN protein, for which the compound yielded the lowest binding energy.
