Diaryl disulfides compounds are important class of compounds having multifaceted applications in pharmaceutical industry as well as in the field of material science. Three dialkyl 2,2'-disulfanediyldibenzamides of enhanced lipophilic character were synthesized by introducing long alkyl chains C8-C12 at the amino end. These benzamides were characterized by elemental, IR, NMR and 2D NMR. These compounds showed interesting antibacterial activity over a panel of gram positive and gram negative bacteria. The compound containing the C12-alkyl chain was found to be more active.
