Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a 0° C. cooled solution tert-butyl 2-(2-sulfanyladamantan-2-yl)acetate (4.1 g, 24.1 mmol) in anhydrous dichloromethane (40 mL) lithium aluminum hydride (1 M solution in THF) (40 mL) was added dropwise over a period of 20 minutes. The reaction mixture was stirred at 0° C. for further 15 minutes and then at room temperature for 30 minutes. The excess LiAlH4 was destroyed by the addition of ethyl acetate. The reaction mixture was then poured over ice cold water, acidified with 1 N HCl and extracted with dichloromethane (2×200 mL). The combined extracts were washed with brine (1×75 mL), dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and solvent evaporated at reduced pressure to give the title compound (3.1 g), mp 68-70° C.; 1H NMR (CDCl3): δ1.16-1.9 (m, 11H), 2.1 (m, 2H), 2.22 (t, J=6.9 Hz, 3H), 2.43 (m, 2H), 3.93 (t, J=6.9 Hz, 2H); 13C NMR (CDCl3): δ26.8, 27.7, 33.2, 33.9, 38.2, 39.1, 43.4, 55.8, 59.4; LRMS (APIMS) (m/z) 230 (M+18) (M+NH4).
