5-(Omega-hydroxyalkylamino) derivatives of mucochloric acids were synthesized through a facile substitution reaction of 3,4-dichloro-5-hydroxy-2(5H)-furanone (mucochloric acid) acetate or 5-methylcarbonate with an appropriate amino alcohol or aminodiol. The obtained products were characterized and screened for their antibacterial and antiprotozoal activities.
