PCT No. PCT/ES96/00026 Sec. 371 Date Dec. 13, 1996 Sec. 102(e) Date Dec. 13, 1996 PCT Filed Feb. 8, 1996 PCT Pub. No. WO96/24528 PCT Pub. Date Aug. 15, 1996Surfactants having general formula (II) wherein X=8-14; n=2-8. The process for obtaining such surfactants comprises the following steps; a) producing nitroarginin; b) producing N alpha -acyl-nitroarginin c) producing N alpha N omega bis (N alpha acyl-arginin) alpha , omega diaminoalkylamide dichlorohydrate. Said surfactants are antimicrobial agents which can be applied in cosmetics, pharmacy and food industry.
