Procedure
To 25 ml of acetic acid were added 10 mmol of adamantane, 1 mmol of N-hydroxyphthalimide and 0.3 mmol of phosphovanadomoribdic acid (PV5Mo7O40.30H2), and the resultant mixture (pH 1.2) was stirred under an oxygen atmosphere at a temperature of 75° C. for 6 hours. The products in the reaction mixture were analyzed by gas chromatography, and, as a result, adamantane was converted into adamantanone (yield 30%) and 1-hydroxyadamantanone (yield 15%) with a conversion of 77%. Incidentally, excepting the above, 1-adamantanol (yield 16%), 1,3-adamantanediol (yield 8%) and other products (polyketone such as adamantanedione) (yield 8%) were formed.
