Antimicrobial resistance against many known therapeutics is on the rise. We examined derivatives of 3-chlorooxazolidin-2-one 1a (X=H) as antibacterial and antifungal agents. The key findings were that the activity and apparent in vitro cytotoxicity could be controlled by the substitution of charged solubilizers at the 4- and 5- positions. These changes both significantly increase the antifungal potency and decrease cytotoxicity. Particularly effective were trialkylammonium groups which led to 400- to 600-fold increases in the antifungal therapeutic index when compared to their unsubstituted counterparts.
