6-Chloro-3-((2-oxo-5-phenylfuran-3(2H)-ylidene)methyl)-4H-chromen-4-one was utilised for the construction of N-heterocycles. The proclivity of this furanone towards some nitrogen nucleophiles, i.e. glycine, thiosemicarbazide, thiocarbohydrazide, phenylhydrazine and o-phenylenediamine, was studied. The structures of all products obtained were established on the basis of their analytical and spectral data. All synthesised compounds were screened for their in vitro antibacterial (two strains of bacteria; Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus) and antifungal (two fungus strains; Aspergillus flavus and Candida albicans) activities. Some products exhibited promising antimicrobial activities.
