In this work, we focus our attention on chemical reactions confined within carbon nanotubes. As a result of the confinement within carbon nanotubes, novel physical and chemical properties are found for the confined materials. We consider the feasibility of proton transfer inside carbon nanotubes. To do that, we have chosen formamide as the simplest real model for exhibiting the tautomerization in DNA. We have used the quantitative structure–property relationship method, based on geometry optimization and quantum chemical structural descriptors, to illustrate the potential of using the confined space inside carbon nanotubes, which will provide comprehensive information about carbon nanotubes. All calculations have been carried out using density functional theory quantum calculations with the B3LYP functional. The geometries optimized by the Gaussian program were transferred to the computer software DRAGON to calculate pertinent descriptors that could be used in the quantitative structure–property relationship model.

Aims : The aim of this study is to show the anticorrosive properties of 1,3-dimethyl-7H-purine-2,6-dione on aluminium corrosion in 1M hydrochloric acid and to study the synergy effect between iodide ions and this molecule. Background: Research of eco-friendly, low toxic and biodegradable corrosion inhibitors capable of protecting metals in order to support industrialists who spend large sums of money to replace their corroded equipment. Objective: The main objective is to study the anticorrosive properties of theophylline on aluminium corrosion in 1M HCl. Methods: The anticorrosive properties study of theophylline on aluminium corrosion in 1M HCl was evaluated using mass loss, Density Functional Theory at B3LYP/6-31G (d) and Quantitative Structure-Property Relationship methods. Results: The results obtained show that theophylline inhibition efficiency increases with concentration but decreases with increasing temperature with a maximum value of 88% for 5.10-3M at T = 298 K. The result from absorption isotherms reveals that theophylline adsorbs to the aluminium surface according to the modified Langmuir isotherm. Adejo Ekwenshi's isotherm has shown that the molecule adsorption on aluminium is essentially of a physical nature. Thermodynamic adsorption and activation parameters were calculated and analyzed. A synergistic effect between the molecule studied and the iodide ions was found. Furthermore, global and local reactivity were analyzed through density functional theory calculations. Quantitative structure-property relationship methods model has been permitted to correlate experimental and theoretical inhibition efficiencies. Conclusion: Theophylline is an excellent aluminum inhibitor corrosion in the studied solution. Theoretical results were in agreement with experimental data. Other: Finally to find the best set of parameters for modeling the inhibition efficiency.
