A new Schiff base hydrazone (Z)‐2‐(2‐aminothiazol‐4‐yl)‐N′‐(2‐hydroxy‐3‐methoxybenzylidene) acetohydrazide (H2L) and its chelates [VO (HL)2]·5H2O, [Cu (HL)Cl(H2O)]·2H2O and [Fe(L)Cl(H2O)2]·3H2O have been isolated and characterized using different physico‐chemical methods, for example infrared (IR), electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), thermogravimetric analysis and DTG in the solid state, and 1H‐NMR, 13C‐NMR and UV in solution. Magnetic and UV–visible measurements proposed that the coordination environments are square pyramidal, tetrahedral and octahedral geometries for oxovanadium (IV), Cu (II) and Fe (III), respectively. The ligand acts as mono‐negative NO towards oxovanadium (IV) and Cu (II) ions, and bi‐negative ONO for Fe (III) ion. The geometries of the ligand and its complexes were performed using Gaussian 9 program with density functional theory. The EPR spectral data of oxovanadium (IV) and Cu (II) chelates confirmed the mentioned geometries. The molecular modeling was done, and illustrated bond lengths, bond angles, molecular electrostatic potential, Mulliken atomic charges and chemical reactivity for the inspected compounds. Theoretical IR and 1H‐NMR of the free ligand were calculated. Furthermore, thermodynamic and kinetic parameters for thermal decomposition steps were studied. Docking study of H2L was applied against the proteins of both bacterial strains Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli, as well as the protein of xanthine oxidase as antioxidant agent by Schrödinger suite program utilizing XP glide protocol. Furthermore, antimicrobial, antioxidant and DNA‐binding activities of the compounds have been carried out.
