Synthesis of diacetylamino and diamino derivatives of adamantane series

Abstract

1,3-Diacetylamino derivatives were synthesized directly from adamantane series hydrocarbons or from adamantan-1-ylacetic acids by a one-pot method with a succession of an oxidation stage and Ritter’s reaction in nitric acid and in a mixture of sulfuric and nitric acids. The hydrolysis of 1,3-diacetylamino derivatives in an acidic medium leads to scaffold diamines and diaminoacids.
