ABSTRACT: The corrosion hindrance of Cu in 2.0 M HNO3 solution by 2-amino-6-methyl-5-oxo-4-phenyl-5,6-dihydro-4H-pyrano[3,2-c]quinoline-3-carbonitrile compound has been studied, using Potentiodynamic Polarization (PP), AC Impedance (EIS), Electrochemical Frequency Modulation (EFM) techniques. Also, EIS test was utilized to confirm the corrosion protection mechanism. 2-amino-6-methyl-5-oxo-4-phenyl-5,6-dihydro-4H-pyrano[3,2-c]quinoline-3-carbonitrile compound is suggested as a mixed kind inhibitor. SEM and EDX investigations of the Cu in 2.0 M HNO3 surface revealed that assembles protect Cu from corrosion by adsorption on its surfaces by a forming coating film. Clearly, the assembled mechanisms play a role as a barrier to corrosive solution.
