Abstract
Adamantan-1-ol (II) can be synthesized by catalytic oxidation of adamantane (I) with such oxidants as oxygen, hydrogen peroxide, alkyl hydroperoxides, and iodosylbenzene in the presence of Co, Mn, Fe, and Ru complexes [1–12]. Catalytic oxidation of adamantane (I) generally gives mixtures of products. For example, the oxidation of I with atmospheric oxygen in pyridine–acetic acid in presence of an iron catalyst and zinc at 40°C afforded a mixture of adamantan-1-ol and adamantan-2-ol whose ratio ranged, depending on the conditions, from 10 : 1 to 24.8 : 1, the overall yield being 6–16% [8].
