Green corrosion inhibitors, n-dodecyl succinate derivatives containing one (HSE) or two triazole groups (DSE), were prepared by three step reactions, that is, nucleophilic substitution reaction, click coupling reaction, and esterification reaction. The characterization results obtained from H-1 NMR, FT-IR, and elemental analysis indicated that the succinate derivatives were synthesized successfully. The rust preventing properties of the final products were also investigated using both ASTM D665 and weight loss methods. It was found that the strength of rust-preventing property due to the presence of succinate derivatives in paraffin oil was largely determined by the concentration of alkyl chains, not by their length or by the types of functional groups.
