D-Ribofuranose1-dihydrogenphosphate dicyclohexanamine

D-Ribofuranose 1-dihydrogen phosphate dicyclohexanamine, known as ribose 1-phosphate, is a biochemical precursor utilized in the synthesis of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) via the enzyme uridine phosphorylase. This compound is applied in cancer research, particularly in studies investigating nucleoside metabolism and the mechanisms of chemotherapeutic agents in both in vitro and in vivo models.
