o-Aminophenol alkyl ethers, possessing odd-numbered straight carbon chain as the alkyl group, were synthesized and their antibacterial action against human type Mycobacterium tuberculosis was examined with their hydrochlorides on Kirchner medium. The compounds synthesized were propyl, amyl, heptyl, nonyl, undecyl and tridecyl ethers. The effect of these alkyls against bacteriostasis was found to be the same as that obtained with even-numbered alkyl chains and no difference in bacteriostatic specificity was found to exist between odd-and even-numberedchains.
