Results obtained revealed that the synthesized compounds are efficient inhibitors. Generally inhibition efficiency increases with increasing inhibitor concentration and decreasing temperature. The synergistic effect of halide ions on the inhibition of oxadiazoles was also investigated.<br /> &nbsp;</p> https://journalofchemistry.org/paper/750/ Mercapto oxadiazoles, inhibition efficiency
