(S)-(-)-4-Isopropyl-2-oxazolidinone is a synthetic chemical that inhibits the enzyme, L-DOPA decarboxylase. This inhibitor prevents the conversion of levodopa to dopamine, thereby reducing the production of dopamine in the brain. The inhibition of this enzyme also reduces the metabolic rate and increases the duration of action of levodopa. (S)-(-)-4-Isopropyl-2-oxazolidinone has been shown to be a competitive inhibitor with respect to its intramolecular hydrogen bond. This chemical binds to the hydroxyl group on one side of the molecule with a proton on the other side. It is believed that this binding leads to the cleavage and subsequent release of an oxazolidine ring from one end of (S)-(-)-4-Isopropyl-2-oxazolidinone, which then becomes covalently attached to L-DOPA
