In the present study, four 4-aminophenol derivatives, (E)-4-(((5-bromothiophen-2-yl)methylene)amino)phenol, (E)-4-(((5-bromofuran-2-yl)methylene)amino)phenol, (E)-4-(((5-nitrofuran-2-yl) methylene) amino)phenol, and 4 (E)-4-((3-(benzyloxy)-4-methoxybenzylidene) amino)phenol, were synthesized and characterized by FT-IR, 1H-NMR, and 13C-NMR. The synthesized compounds were tested for antimicrobial (Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria) and antioxidant activities. Compounds G2 and H2 showed moderate activity against Staphylococcus aureus compared to the standard Novobiocin. In contrast, compounds E2, F2, and H2 exhibited medium-range activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, while only compound H2 showed medium-range activity against Escherichia coli. The newly synthesized compounds showed significant antioxidant activity (72.5% ± 0.43), (67.4% ± 0.68), (77% ± 1.03), and (60% ± 0.73) compared to ascorbic acid (76% ± 0.30). The present study delineated the broad-spectrum antimicrobial and antioxidant activities of the synthesized compounds.
