The first one-pot 'alkane-like' reactions of carbonyl-containing adamantanes

摘要

A novel 'alkane-like' methodology for the direct and very simple one-pot functionalization of amides and an ester of 1-adamantanecarboxylic acid provides access to new and synthetically challenging 1,3-dicar-bonyl-containing adamantanoid compounds with the same or different functional groups.
