Description

4-Methyl-2-phenylimidazole is a molecule that has a functional theory. It is used as an inhibitor of corrosion and has been shown to inhibit the activity of magnesium oxide in photoelectron spectroscopy. The molecule has two tautomeric forms, which are the keto form and the enol form. When the molecule is irradiated with light, it absorbs photons and changes into its keto form. Its vibrational modes are also observed in infrared spectroscopy. 4-Methyl-2-phenylimidazole has an activation energy of 6.8 eV and can be classified as stable because it does not decompose at room temperature.
