Participants

Reaction Steps

2,4-Dihydroxybenzoic acid (9.24 g) and 1-adamantanol (9.14 g) are dissolved in dichloromethane (200 mL) and then stirred. After adding acetic acid (17.1 mL) mixed with concentrated sulfuric acid (3.3 mL) dropwise, the mixture is stirred at room temperature for 12 hours. After adding water (200 mL), sodium bicarbonate is added until the pH of the solution becomes 6. The produced solid is filtered to obtain 8.82 g of 5-adamantan-1-yl-2,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid as solid of a light color.
