This study analyzed the corrosion inhibitory effects and the antibacterial action of the quinoline derivative, namely N'-(2-hydroxybenzylidene)-2-(quinolin-8-yloxy)acetohydrazide (NHQA). NHQA prevention of corrosion behavior was investigated using weight loss experiments on mild steel coupons in hydrochloric acid. Weight loss tests achieved improved inhibition performance for NHQA, and the high inhibitor efficiency was reached at 303 K, of 93.4 percent at 500 ppm NHQA. Moreover, the effect of immersion time on carbon steel corrosion was investigated using strategies for weight loss. The NHQA mechanism for corrosion inhibition was also examined. These findings confirm that the NHQA molecules can be used in industrial applications as a possible corrosion inhibitor. In an aqueous solution, the synthesized compound (NHQA) can also be used as an antimicrobial agent. The microbial inhibitive efficacy of NHQA against Gram-positive (Staphyloccocus aureus) and Gram-negative bacteria (Escherichia coli, Proteus vulgaris, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa) was evaluated employee a disc diffusion technique. NHQA has considerable inhibition efficacy toward all investigated bacteria.
