CAS 5617-74-3: 3-Oxabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane-2,4-dione

3-Oxabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane-2,4-dione is a cocatalyst with a molecular formula of C6H14O3. It is a synthetic compound that is used as an inhibitor in organic synthesis reactions and as a cocatalyst for the ring-opening polymerization of cyclic olefins. 3-Oxabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane-2,4-dione binds to the receptor subtype site on the benzene ring of benzoate, amines, and acid catalysts. This binding prevents the formation of an enzyme/substrate complex at the active site of the enzyme, inhibiting its activity and leading to cell death.
