In recent times, there has been a growing exploration of transition metal complexes as potential solutions for significant health challenges, including tuberculosis, microbes infection, and inflammation. Therefore, in our ongoing effort to identify biologically effective agents, Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), and Zn(II) metal complexes of H2L1–H2L2 hydrazone ligands were synthesized. The structural features of synthesized compounds were recognized by employing several techniques such as FT‐IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, powder x‐ray diffraction (XRD), UV‐Vis, ESR, TG‐DTA, mass spectrometry, and molar conductance measurements. The bonding of ligands via Ophenolic, Oenolic, and Nazomethine donor atoms and the attachment of the three water molecules with metal ion to form the octahedral structure of complexes were corroborated by different spectroscopic techniques. The anti‐tuberculosis, antimicrobial, and anti‐inflammatory activities of the synthesized compounds were assessed using the microplate alamar blue assay, serial dilution, and bovine serum albumin (BSA) methods, respectively, and highlighted the more potency of the complexes than ligands. The synthesized Cu(II) (9) and Zn(II) (10) metal complexes exhibited excellent ability to inhibit the growth of H37Rv strain of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in comparison to standard drug streptomycin. The Cu(II) (6 and 9) and Zn(II) (10) complexes showed superb ability as antimicrobial agents, whereas Cu(II) (5) and Zn(II) (6) complexes exhibited significant anti‐inflammatory ability. The in vitro findings on the antituberculosis activity were reinforced by a significant molecular docking study, which has become a crucial component of computational research utilizing the enzyme Mtb Pks13 thioesterase domain of M. tuberculosis. Additionally, in this research work, the absorption–distribution–metabolism–excretion–toxicity (ADMET) study sparked the compounds' drug‐like behavior.
