Synthesis, Antibacterial and Anti-Corrosive Activity of 2,3-Dihydroimidazo[1,2-a]Pyridinium Bromides

The paper describes the synthesis of a set of new 2,3-dihydroimidazo[1,2-a]pyridinium bromides which demonstrate antibacterial properties against sulfate-reducing bacteria of Desulfomicrobium and Desulfovibrio strains and inhibit their functioning in the binary culture under the steel microbial corrosion. The compounds demonstrate antibiofilm and anticorrosive properties in the medium with sulfate-reducing bacteria, steel anticorrosion rate is up to 70.6 %.
