Zwitterionic water-soluble substituted imine corrosion inhibitors

摘要

This invention is directed to a zwitterionic water-soluble imine of formula:wherein R1 is heterocyclyl, heteroaryl, aryl, arylalkyl, cycloalkyl or lower alkyl; R2 is alkyl, alkenyl, aminoalkyl, diaminoalkyl, hydroxyalkyl, alkoxyalkyl, thioalkyl, alkylthioalkyl or arylalkyl; R3 is hydrogen and lower alkyl, or R1 and R3 taken together form a cycloalkyl, p is 2, 3, 4 or 5; and Z is CO2-, OCO2-, SO3-, OSO3-, PO3- or OPO3- which are useful as ferrous metal corrosion inhibitors.
