ChemInform Abstract A molten mixture of the title compounds (I) and (II) undergoes exothermic reaction to give the adamantyl esters (III) in fair yields. These esters are probably produced via initial cyclization of (I) and formation of an adamantyl cation, which subsequently reacts with the salts (II) to give the thermodynamically more stable products (III).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
