In the present study, the natural product named
15,16-epoxy-4-hydroxy-labda-13(16),14-dien-3,12-dione (C20H28O4), a
labdane-type diterpene was isolated from the stems of Croton
jacobinensis for the first time. This new compound was characterized by
infrared and Raman spectroscopy combined with Density Functional Theory
calculation. Additionally, the antimicrobial and modulatory antibiotic
activities of the compound towards Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas
aeruginosa strains were assessed. The labdane diterpene demonstrated a
modulatory effect when combined with the antibiotics assayed against
both bacteria. A synergistic effect against Escherichia coli can be
observed when the compound is associated with gentamicin, reducing the
concentration of this antibiotic that is required to inhibit bacterial
growth. Other synergistic effects can be observed with gentamicin and
cephalothin antibiotics against P. aeruginosa. (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V.
