Procedure
Using a method similar to that used in the preparation of 1-methylcyclohexyl 2-(p-nitrophenyl)propionate, 14.6 g of 2-(p-nitrophenyl)propionic acid, but using 1-adamantol instead of 1-methylcyclohexanol, were reacted to obtain 22.74 g (92% yield) of 1-adamantyl 2-(p-nitrophenyl)propionate as a light yellow viscous liquid.
