In adamantanes with cyclic substituents, as for example 1-phenyladamantane or 1-(2' -butyl)adamanta ne c14H24 193 0·78 13 1-ethyl-3-methyladamantane Cl3H22 192 0·77 14 1 ,3-diethyladamantane c14H24 189 0·74 15 1 ,3,5-trimethyladamantane c13H22 186 0·72 16 1-ethyl-3,5-dimethyladamantane C14H24 184 0·70 17 1 ,3,5, 7 -tetramethyladamantane c14H24 178 0·65 18 1-ethyl-3,5, 7 -trimethyladamantane C1sH26 176 0·63 19 3,3-diethyl-5,5' -dimethyl 1,1'-diadamantyl, these bulky substituents cause practically the same decrease in the elution volume as methyl or ethyl. The increase of the ring in the adamantane structure, or the condensation of another ring to it (as in hydrocarbon 4) has a still weaker effect than the methyl group.…”
