All the synthesized compounds have been screened for their antibacterial properties against various bacterial strains in order to obtain chemotherapeutic properties and these compounds were tested to determine their ability to inhibit corrosion of mild steel in 1 mol.l-1H2SO4 and measured by polarization measurements. The studies revealed that nitrogen, the piperidine moiety, the phenyl ring, 4-thiazolidinone assist largely in corrosion control. %K Piperidin-4-One %K 4-Methylbenzene -1 %K 3-Diamine %K Schiff Bases %K Antibacterial %K Anticorrosion %U http://www.jcrs010.com/files/124_JCRS_20130422.pdf
