Abstract
Abstract The reaction of 1-adamantyl triflate ( 1 ) with carbon monoxide and adamantane catalyzed by triflic acid affords 3-hydroxy-4-homoadamantyl 1-adamantanecarboxylate ( 2 ) as a major product, which is easily converted to 3,4-homoadamantanediol ( 5 ) — a promising starting material for 3,4-bifunctional homoadamantane derivatives.
