Abstract
Novel compounds of the present invention are represented by the general formula (1) ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 is hydrogen atom or amino, R.sub.2 is fluorine atom or methoxy, R.sub.3 is hydrogen atom or a lower alkyl having 1 to 3 carbon atoms, and n is 0 or 1. The compounds of the general formula (1) exhibit higher antibacterial activity with fewer side-effects than known quinolone antibiotics such as ofloxacin and norfloxacin. Further, the compounds having the general formula (1) have reduced phototoxicity which normally accompanies 6,8-defluoroquinoline antibiotics.
