General description

2-Adamantanone on deprotonation in the gas phase affords the corresponding β-enolate anion. It reacts with 1,1-dilithio-1-sila-2,3,4,5-tetraphenylsilole to yield 5-silafulvene.

Application

2-Adamantanone was used in the synthesis of dispiro N-Boc-protected 1,2,4-trioxane and (+/-)-1-(adamantan-2-yl)-2-propanamine.

Deprotonation of 2-adamantanone (1) in the gas phase affords the corresponding beta-enolate anion. This ion was independently prepared by the fluoride-induced desilylation of 4-trimethylsilyl-2-adamantanone, and its reactivity and thermodynamic properties were measured (DeltaH degrees(acid) = 394.7 +/- 1.4, EA =

Dispiro N-Boc-protected 1,2,4-trioxane 2 was synthesised via Mo(acac)(2) catalysed perhydrolysis of N-Boc spirooxirane followed by condensation of the resulting beta-hydroperoxy alcohol 10 with 2-adamantanone. N-Boc 1,2,4-trioxane 2 was converted to the amine 1,2,4-trioxane hydrochloride salt 3 which was subsequently used

Nature uses mechanochemical transduction processes to achieve diverse and vital functions, such as hearing, cellular adhesion and gating of ion channels. One fascinating example of biological mechanotransduction is the emission of light on mechanical stimulation. However, molecular-level transduction of force

We report that the oxygen sensitivity of some Fe(II) complexes with tripodal ligands can be used, with benefit, in the oxidation of cyclohexane under mild conditions. Depending on the solvent, two very different reaction pathways are involved, which share the

Reaction of 1,1-dilithio-1-sila-2,3,4,5-tetraphenylsilole with 2-adamantanone produces a 5-silafulvene. This represents a new method for synthesis of silenes, leading to the first example of a silapentafulvene.
