Procedure

Dissolve 0.5 mol of 1-(2-bromoethyl)-3,5-dimethyl adamantane (II) in toluene, mix with 0.55 mol of sodium-bis(2-methoxy-ethoxy)dihydro aluminate, and heat to boiling for 3 hrs. After hydrolysis, separate the organic phase, dry with magnesium sulfate, and evaporate to dryness under vacuum. Purify the residue by vacuum distillation. (Yield: 86%).
