In addition, some polymeric quaternary ammonium compounds have also been found to exhibit antimicrobial activity; see Hoover, J. Macromolo. Sci.-Chem., A4 (6) pp. 1327-1417 (October 1970); Rembaum, Applied Polymer Symposium, No. 22, 299-317 (1973).

The resulting compounds are microbiologically active and are advantageously used when it is beneficial to have a compound which has a hydrophobic group in addition to exhibiting antimicrobial activity. For example, it can be desirable to use such a compound in contact lens care solutions and preparations which will be used with hydrophilic soft contact lenses.

Q is an alkyl, aryl or cycloalkyl having a polymerizable and a water compatible functional group; and D.sup.- is a pharmaceutically acceptable anion, The letters m and n are the ratio of two monomers.

The compounds of the present invention can be used in compositions or formulations in which antimicrobial activity is desired. Depending on the intended antimicrobial use, the compounds can be present at concentrations up to and including about 1%. When the compounds are used as disinfectants or preservatives in ophthalmic compositions the compounds can be present at concentrations between about 0.00001 and 0.1 wt. %, preferably 0.001 to 0.01 wt. %.

The preferred antimicrobial compounds are those represented by structures [II] and [V]. The compound defined by [II] which is most preferred is [IIC]. Compounds defined by [II] exhibit antimicrobial activity similar to that of BAC but are relatively less toxic. This makes the compounds more desirable for use in areas where reducing toxicity and the associated discomfort are very important, such as for use in the eye. The compound within [V] which is most preferred is [VB]. Compounds defined by [IV] exhibit antimicrobial activity and are particularly useful in conjunction with soft contact lenses, such as high water content soft contact lenses.

EXAMPLE 11

Homopolymer of benzenemethanaminium,N,N-dimethyl,N-methacryloxyethyl]-ethyl-3,4-{2-[tris(trimethylsiloxyl)silyl]ethyl},-chloride [VA]

Dioxane was used as a solvent for all polymerizations, before use it was freshly distilled from LiAlH.sub.4. Benzene-methanaminium,N,N-dimethyl,N-methacryloxyethyl-3,4-{2-[tris(trimethylsiloxyl)silyl]ethyl},-chloride, 1.0 g was added to a clean, dry 20 ml glass, screw top test tube along with 10 ml dioxane, 10mg of azobisisobutylonitrile. After degassing with Argon the tube was capped and placed in an oil bath at 60.degree. C. for one hour and then the temperature was raised to 70.degree. C. and the polymerization was allowed to proceed overnight. A white precipitate was formed that was dissolved in methanol and precipitated from ethyl ether. A 70% yield of polymer was obtained. The homopolymer was essentially insoluble in water but was soluble in methanol, dimethyl formamide and other polar organic solvents.

The structure was confirmed by the following peaks in IR: 3400 CM-1, 1730 (ester), and 1060 (Si--O).

EXAMPLE 12

Copolymers of benzenemethanaminium, N,N-dimethyl, N-methacryl oxyethyl-3,4-{2-[tris(trimethylsiloxy)silyl]ethyl},-chloride and acrylamide (1:1 copolymer) [VB]

Using the same procedure as Example II, copolymers were prepared of acrylamide (0.1 g, 1.43.times.10.sup.-3 moles) and 0.850 g (1.40.times.10.sup.-3 moles) of benzenemethaniminium, N,N-dimethyl, N-methacryloxyethyl-3,4{2-[tris(trimethylsiloxysilyl]ethyl},-chloride. A1BN was used to initiate the polymerization. The reaction yielded 45% of the product. The polymer was characterized by determining the intensity of peaks at 1730 cm.sup.-1 and 1680 cm.sup.-1.

The same procedure is utilized to synthesize copolymers of the followings: 2:1 and 3:1 ratios of siloxanyl compound and acrylamide.
