In this work some organic natural products were studied, namely tannic acid, gallic acid, mimosa tannin and chestnut tannin, as potential green corrosion inhibitors of the aluminium alloy AA2024-T3. The anodizing treatment was performed in a solution of the referred organic compounds in diluted sulfuric acid. The electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and the potentiodynamic polarization were performed to assess sealing quality and corrosion protection granted by the anodic films. To understand the green inhibitors; interaction with the metal surface, FTIR spectra of anodizing and anodizing and sealed samples of AA2023-T3 were recorded, and the shifts in the position of the major bands confirmed that the green inhibitor interacts with the metal surface. Images of the morphology of the coatings were provided by Scanning Electron Microscopy. From the results obtained through the various techniques that were used to carry out this study it is possible to conclude that the formed anodic films can be a good contribution for the prevention of corrosion in the aluminium alloy AA2024-T3.

Several sulfenamide derivatives were designed as possible acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitors. New sulfenamides were synthesized and proved to be stable under the physiological conditions used in the enzymatic assays. N‐benzyl‐2‐benzoxazolylsulfenamide (8) and N‐benzyl‐2‐benzimidazolylsulfenamide (9) revealed anti‐AChE activity with IC50 values of 0.6 and 0.8 μM, respectively, values of the same magnitude as those reported for galantamine and tacrine. The affinity for the biological site was evaluated in terms of interaction/partition toward sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) micelles. The inhibitory activity profiles were reasoned in terms of both partition toward a hydrophobic anionic environment and molecular geometry. The XCSN dihedral angle deviations from collinearity stood out as a major parameter linked to enzyme specificity. J. Heterocyclic Chem., (2011).
