Reaction Steps

A mixture of 3 mmol of 1-acetyladamantane, 18 mmol of biacetyl, 0.015 mmol of cobalt(II) acetate, and 3 ml of acetic acid was stirred at 60° C. under an oxygen atmosphere (1 atm) for 4 hours. Products in the reaction mixture were found, by gas chromatographic analysis, to be 1,3-diacetyladamantane (yield 34%), 1-acetyl-3-adamantanol (yield 29%), and 1,3-diacetyl-5-adamantanol (yield 2%), 1-acetyl-4-adamantanone (yield 5%), at a conversion rate from 1-acetyladamantane of 80%.
