Procedure

As shown in Scheme II, in this method, adamantyl bromide (Formula A) is alkylated via zinc chloride catalysis to produce α-hydroxytricyclo[3.3.1.13,7]decane-1-acetic acid (Formula B). α-Hydroxytricyclo[3.3.1.13,7]decane-1-acetic acid (Formula B) is then esterified using acetyl chloride in methanol to produce α-hydroxytricyclo[3.3.1.13,7]decane-1-acetic acid, methyl ester (Formula C). α-Hydroxytricyclo[3.3.1.13,7]decane-1-acetic acid, methyl ester (Formula C) is then converted to α-oxotricyclo[3.3.1.13,7]decane-1-acetic acid, methyl ester (Formula D) by Swern oxidation. α-Oxotricyclo[3.3.1.13,7]decane-I-acetic acid, methyl ester (Formula D) is then hydroxylated to form 3-hydroxy-α-oxotricyclo[3.3.1.13,7]decane-1-acetic acid, methyl ester (Formula 1a), which is then hydrolyzed to form 3-hydroxy-α-oxotricyclo[3.3.1.13,7]decane-1-acetic acid (Formula 1).
