Reaktionsschritte

A mixture of 1.68 grams (10 millimoles) of 1,3-adamantanediol, 0.13 gram (0.8 millimole) of N-hydroxyphthalimide, 0.015 gram (0.06 millimole) of Co(AA)2 and 25 milliliters of acetic acid was stirred under an oxygen atmosphere at a temperature of 95° C. for 6 hours. Thus, 1,3-adamantanediol was transformed, with a transformation rate of 99%, into 1,3,5-adamantanetriol (selectivity for 1,3-adamantanediol 37%, yield 37%) and 1,3,5,7-adamantanetetraol (selectivity for 1,3-adamantanediol 62%, yield 62%). The selectivity for the alcohols was 99%.
