A series of azo naphthalimide dyes were prepared by coupling N,N-diethyl-m-toluidine with three heterocyclic amines as the diazo components. The structures of the nine prepared azo dyes were fully characterized by Fourier transform infrared, differential scanning calorimeter, thin-layer chromatography, proton and carbon nuclear magnetic resonance, mass spec- trometry, elemental analysis (CHNS), and UV–Vis spectroscopic techniques. UV–Vis studies represented that all dyes -1 -1 have molar extinction coefficients between 30,000 and 61,000 M cm and have maximum wavelengths between 545 and 558 nm in DMF solution. The newly synthesized dyes were screened for their potential antimicrobial activities against Gram-positive, Gram-negative bacteria and fungi using the cup plate and broth microdilution methods. The results of antibacterial and antifungal activities exhibited significant inhibitory effect against the test microorganisms in vitro.
