Co(II), Ni(II), Zn(II) and Cu(II) complexes of (3E)-3-[(2-{(E)-[1-(2,4-dihydroxyphenyl)ethylidene]amino}ethyl)imino]-1-phenylbutan-1-one (DEPH2) derived from ethylenediamine, 2',4'-dihydroxyacetophenone and 1-phenylbutane-1,3-dione have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, FTIR, UV-Visible spectroscopy, and screened to establish their potential as antibacterial agents, antioxidants and DPPH radical scavengers. The FTIR spectra showed that the ligand behaves as a dibasic tetradentate ligand with the dioxygen-dinitrogen donor atom system oriented towards the central metal ion. The analytical and spectroscopic data suggest a square planar geometry for Cu(II) and Ni(II) complexes and an octahedral geometry for the Co(II) complex. The ligand and their metal complexes were screened for antibacterial activity against Gram (+) and Gram (-) bacteria by the agar well diffusion method. In addition, the antioxidant activities of the complexes were also investigated through their scavenging effect on DPPH and ABTS radicals. The obtained IC50 value of the DPPH activity for the copper complex (2.08 ± 0.47 µM) and that of the ABTS activity for the copper complex (IC50 = 2.11 + 1.69 µM) were higher than the values obtained for the other compounds.
