Reaction Steps

Into a flask, 1 mmole of adamantane, 0.05 mmole of N-hydroxyphthalimide, 15 mmole of nitrogen dioxide (NO2), 1 ml of acetonitrile and 2 ml of trifluoromethylbenzene were added and stirred for 5 hours at 60° C. in an atmosphere of oxygen. The reaction products were analyzed by gas chromatography, and, as a result, the conversion of adamantane was 90%, and nitroadamantane (yield 73%), adamantanol (yield 2%), acetyloxyadamantane (yield 1%) and adamantanone (yield 3%) were formed.
