A simple and easy condensation reaction of aryl‐ or N‐substituted isatins with Girard's reagents P and T was found to be useful in obtaining of water‐soluble isatin‐based quaternary ammonium compounds (QACs) bearing pyridinium or trimethylammonium moiety with high yields. Their antimicrobial activity was evaluated. Selective activity against Gram‐positive bacteria (S. aureus 209p and B. cereus 8035) and yeast‐like fungus Candida albicans 855–653 was shown. The influence of the substituent's nature as in the aromatic fragment as at position 1 on the activity was established. The most active are the pyridinium salts containing sterically hindered phenolic fragment at the position 1 of the heterocycle. The structures of all novel compounds were fully characterized using IR and NMR spectroscopies as well as XRD analysis.
