Two pyrimidine-pyrazole derivatives have been investigated as corrosion inhibitors for mild steel in acidic medium using weight loss measurement, polarization curve and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The results obtained reveal that these compounds perform as corro-sion inhibitors for mild steel in 1 M HCl. The values of inhibition efficiency calculated from three experimental techniques are reasonably in good agreement. The adsorption process of these com-pounds on surface of mild steel obeys to El Awady isotherm. Also, the adsorption process of inhibitors studied explaining by surface analysis (EDX). This work followed by in silico approach studies. Firstly, we used Marvinsketch.18 program in order to detect predominant form of inhibitors in elec-trolytic solution and then computed by Gaussian 09 based on the DFT method at B3LYP/6-31G (d, p).The results obtained theoretically are in good correlation with those obtained experimentally.
