Abstract: The invention discloses compounds of the formula ##STR1## wherein, Het.sub.1 is chosen from the group consisting of substituted or unsubstituted furyl, oxazolyl, isoxazolyl, oxadiazolyl, tetrazolyl, thiadiazolylY is an alkylene bridge of 3 to 9 carbon atoms.Het.sub.2 is quinolyl quinolyl substituted by R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 ;R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are each individually chosen from hydrogen, halo, alkyl, alkenyl, amino, alkylthio, hydroxy, hydroxyalkyl, alkoxyalkyl, alkylthioalkyl, alkylsulfinyl alkyl, alkylsulfonylalkyl, alkoxy, nitro, carboxy, alkoxycarbonyl, dialkylaminoalkyl, alkylaminoalkyl, aminoalkyl, difluoromethyl, trifluoromethyl or cyano;R.sub.

Abstract: Fluorinated 1- cyclopropyl-7-(substituted-pyridinyl)-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-3-quinolinecarboxy lic acids of the formula ##STR1## wherein R is hydrogen, R' and R" are hydrogen or fluoro, and Z is 3- or 4-pyridinyl substituted by alkyl groups or substituted alkyl groups, are superior antibacterial agents. They are prepared via a coupling reaction between the corresponding esters (R=alkyl) having a halo group in the 7-position and a substituted (trialkylstannyl)-pyridine.
