ABSTRACT
(Di)chloro(di)nitrobenzofuroxans form substitution products involving carbon atoms with phenolates in isopropyl alcohol medium. In the case of 4,6-dinitro-5,7-dichlorobenzofuroxan, besides replacement of one chlorine atom and the formation of C-bonded product, we observed the hydrolysis of the second chlorine and replacement of it by hydroxyl group. Products of reaction of 4,6-dichloro-5-nitrobenzofuroxan with phenolates display excellent antimicrobial activity and have dual action, both against bacteria and fungi.
