[Display omitted] •Single crystals of biologically active chelated bimetallic 1-D coordination polymer, NiZnEDTA were synthesized by silica gel diffusion method.•Agar well diffusion technique shows that NiZnEDTA has antibacterial activity.•MTT assay results show that NiZnEDTA has anticancer activity on MDA-MB-231 cells and is nontoxic to the normal L929 cells.•NiZnEDTA shows higher third order NLO properties in DMSO than in CCl4. Single crystals of bimetallic 1-D coordination polymer, NiZnEDTA were grown by the single gel diffusion method. The agar-well diffusion technique and MTT assay test were done to examine the antimicrobial and anticancer activity of NiZnEDTA. The test outcomes of the MTT assay give a preliminary indication of the anticancer potential of the sample on MDA-MB-231 cells and its nontoxic nature to normal L929 cells. The third-order nonlinear optical characterization of NiZnEDTA was studied by Z-scan technique.
