Schleyer adamantization

It was mentioned above that even alkanes undergo Wagner-Meerwein rearrangements if treated with Lewis acids and a small amount of initiator. An interesting application of this reaction is the conversion of tricyclic molecules to adamantane and its derivatives. It has been found that all tricyclic alkanes containing 10 carbons are converted to adamantane by treatment with a Lewis acid such as AICI3. If the substrate contains more than 10 carbons, alkyl-substituted adamantanes are produced. The lUPAC name for these reactions is Schleyer adamantization. Two examples are... [Pg.1396]
