Procedure

A 250 mL round bottom flask was charged with 2-adamantylcyclopentadiene (10.24 g, 51.13 mmol), benzophenone (9.32 g, 51.13 mmol) and 100 mL absolute ethanol. Once the solids had dissolved, sodium methoxide (5.00 g, 92.6 mmol) was added and the reaction was stirred for five days. The orange precipitate was collected by suction filtration and washed with 50 mL ethanol. The air dried product was stirred in 100 methanol overnight and the solid was collected by suction filtration and washed with 50 mL methanol. Drying in vacuo for several hours provided 13.32 grams of desired product (71.5%). MS (GC-MS) m/z 364.5 (M+). Elemental analysis calculated for C28H28: C, 92.26; H, 7.74. Found: C, 87.05; H, 6.92.
