A novel Schiff base has been synthesized from the condensation of the 3-formyl-2-hydroxybenzoic acid and 4-nitrobenzene-1,2-diamine. The new ligand was found to have two coordination sites. So, it has the capability to form mono- and binuclear complexes with different metal ions. The free ligand and its mono- and binuclear cobalt(II) complexes have been characterized by UV-Visible spectra, IR, elemental analyzes, H1 NMR, conductimetric, thermal, and magnetic measurements. Results indicated that the cobalt(II) ion is attached to the inside coordination site and the second metal ion attached to the outside coordination site. The complexes are all non-electrolytes, as demonstrated by the molar conductance tests. The thermodynamic parameters of the metal complexes are calculated using Horowitz Metzger and Coats-Redfern methods. The complexes' bonding properties have also been estimated. Molecular docking was employed to forecast the interaction of the prepared with the Candida-albicans receptor (1zap). The biological activities of these metal complexes were tested against some bacteria and fungi. It is evident from the biological screening data that the prepared Co(II) binuclear complexes exhibit predominant activity against Candida albicans, Penicillium oxalicum and Escherichia coli, while they have no activity against Micrococcus roseus and Micrococcus luteus.
