Abstract
Soft quaternary surface active agents having the formula: ##STR1## wherein >N represents a tertiary open chain or cyclic aliphatic amine; wherein >N represents an unsaturated amine; wherein R represents a member selected from the group consisting of a hydrogen atom, a C1 -C20 open chain or cyclo alkyl group, a C1 -C20 alkoxyalkyl group, a C1 -C20 acyloxyalkyl group, a C1 -C20 haloalkyl group, a C1 -C20 carboxyalkyl group, an aryl group, and a substituted aryl group, whose substituents are selected from the group consisting of a halogen atom, an O--C1 -C4 alkyl group, an O--C1 -C8 acyl group, a nitro group, a carboxyl group, and a carboethoxy group; wherein R1 represents a C9 -C22 straight or branched alkyl group, a --(CH2)n -- ##STR2## group, wherein R3, R4, R5 and R6 are each selected from the group consisting of a hydrogen atom, a methyl group or an ethyl group, a C0 -C22 straight or branched alkyl-(CH2)n ##STR3## (CH2)m CH3 group, wherein n in each occurrence and m represents an integer of from 0 to 22, an A-CH2 ##STR4## CH2 -A-CH3 group, wherein A represents a C0 -C22 straight or branched alkyl group as above or a --(CH2 CH2 O) group, wherein the p represents an integer of from 0 to 22, and the residue of any naturally occurring bile acid or synthetic derivative thereof; and wherein X represents a halogen atom or any other organic or inorganic monovalent anion are disclosed.
All compounds encompassed within the above-described generic formulae find use as "soft" antibacterial agents of extremely low toxicity.
