A series of uni- and biquaternized derivatives of α-pyridoin and 2,2′-pyridyl were synthesized. Their antimicrobial activity (AMA) was studied with respect to Gram-negative (E. coli) and Gram-positive (S. aureus) bacterial strains. It was established that the AMA depended on the nature of the radical and the presence of an oxygen between the pyridyl rings. The maximum activity was observed for 2,3-bis-(N-dodecylpyridinium-2′-yl)quinoxaline dibromide.
