Cycloprop-2-ene carboxylic acid is a toxic molecule found in some mushrooms such as Russula subnigricans and Tricholoma equestre.[1]

When ingested, the molecule is known to cause rhabdomyolysis.[1]

In mice, by oral injection, the molecule is lethal at 2.5 mg/kg of body mass and poisoning is indicated by an increase in serum creatine phosphokinase activity. Polymerization at high concentrations via ene reaction abolishes toxicity.[1]
