Quinones and their derivatives play an important role in pharmaceutical, medicinal, and environmental applications. The biological activities of quinone derivatives against various gram-positive and negative bacteria and pathogens show strategies for discovering new drug efficiency and various physio-chemical properties. This review discusses the antibacterial activities of various notable quinones and their derivatives against various bacteria and pathogens. A wide literature survey is done on the database PubMed, Scopus, and Google scholars by using code word antibacterial activity of quinone derivatives and the role of various quinone derivatives to discover new potent pharmaceutical applications. Herein, we wish to discuss various quinone derivatives used as potent drug molecules for antibacterial activity against various gram-positive and negative bacteria and pathogens. Proper health care systems are essential for newly develop methodologies to fight against unexpected bacteria and pathogens. The antibacterial activities of various quinone derivatives deliver notable supervision for additional design and synthesis of quinone derivatives and examine the pharmaceutical, industrial and medicinal applications.
