The reaction of ethyl isothiocyanate with Girard's T affords a new hydrazone named 2‐(2‐N,N,N‐trimethyl‐2‐oxoethane‐1‐auminium chloride [EtGT]). Its structure was confirmed by single crystal X‐ray diffraction. Also, the isolations and characterizations of new metal complexes with EtGT were confirmed by elemental analyses, IR, UV‐visible, magnetic measurements, 13C‐NMR, 1H‐NMR, and thermal analyses. IR spectra suggest that the ligand acts as a bidentate coordinating either via the carbonyl oxygen and the nitrogen atom of the hydrazine group or through the sulfur (C=S and/or C‐S) and the NH groups. The computational estimation of EtGT and its complexes were approved with the Gaussian 09 W program in DFT/B3LYP. DPPH and ABTS are two free radical scavenger tests that were utilized in order to evaluate the antioxidant potential of complexes in vitro. Furthermore, the biological effectiveness of the ligand and its complexes against bacteria varieties Gram (+ve) and Gram (−ve) bacteria was in vitro investigated. Also, antifungal action was investigated utilizing inhibition zone diameter. Moreover, the ligand and its complexes also exhibited a broad spectrum of DNA degradation effects, as measured by agarose gel electrophoresis. Cyclic voltammetry of Co2+ with different concentrations was measured experimentally. Molecular docking is exercised to examine the inhibitor characteristics of complexes through binding propensity with CTX‐M‐14 β‐lactamase (Class A).
