Chemical transformations of tetracyclo[3.3.1.1.3,7.0.1,3]decane (1,3-dehydroadamantane): I. Reaction of 1,3-dehydroadamantane with carboxylic acids esters

详细

Adamantylation of carboxylic acids esters was performed with 1,3-dehydroadamantane for the first time. The reaction proceeds under mild conditions and can be used as a convenient single stage procedure for the synthesis of esters of branched carboxylic acids having an adamantyl group in the α-position to the carbonyl group.
