Application

1-Adamantanecarboxylic acid can be used as:
  • A stabilizer in the synthesis of monodisperse, highly crystalline CoPt3 nanoparticles and porous platinum nanoparticles.
  • An additive in polycondensation reactions to yield conjugated polymers as possible optoelectronic materials.
  • An additive in the allylic substitution reaction, which is catalyzed by palladium in an aqueous medium.

Biochem/physiol Actions

1-Adamantanecarboxylic acid undergoes complexation reactions with cyclohexaamylose. It is an inhibitor of phenyl ester hydrolysis of cycloheptaamylose.

We report temperature-dependent ultrasonic velocimetric and densimetric data on changes in volume, expansibility, and adiabatic compressibility associated with the binding of 1-adamantanecarboxylic acid (AD) to gamma-cyclodextrin (gamma-CD). We compare these results with our previous data on the binding of AD

Conditions that promote renaturation of an unfolded protein also promote protein aggregation, in many cases, because these competing intramolecular and intermolecular processes are driven by similar networks of noncovalent interactions. The GroEL/GroES system and related biological chaperones facilitate the renaturation
