A series of previously unreported 2-alkyl-1-(2-chloromethylcarbonylethoxy)pyrroles have been synthesized via reaction of 2-alkly-1-(2-hydroxyethyl)pyrroles with chloroacetyl chloride and reaction of the intermediates with secondary amines to give 2-alkyl-1-[2-diethylamino(morpholino)methylcarbonylethoxy]pyrroles. Their antimicrobial activity has been studied. It is established that electron-accepting substituents in the methylcarbonylethoxy chain increase whereas electron-donating ones decrease the antimicrobial activity of the pyrroles in the order chlorine > morpholine > diethylamine.
