The coumarin-orthoaminophenol derivative was prepared under mild conditions. Based on crystallographic structure, IR and Raman, 1H and 13C NMR spectra the most applicable theoretical method was determined to be B3LYP-D3BJ. The stability and reactivity parameters were calculated, in the framework of NBO, QTAIM and Fukui functions, form the optimized structure. This reactivity was then probed in biological systems. The antimicrobial activity towards four bacteria and three fungi species was examined and activity was proven. In vitro cytotoxic effects, against human epithelial colorectal carcinoma HCT-116 and human healthy lung MRC-5 cell lines, of the investigated substance are also tested. Compound showed significant cytotoxic effects on HCT-116 cells, while on MRC-5 cells showed no cytotoxic effects. The effect of hydroxy group in ortho-position on the overall reactivity of molecule was examined through molecular docking with Glutathione-S-transferases.
