A series of new spiro[N-heterocyclic-adamantanes] was synthesized through the reaction of 2-adamantanone with β-amino carboxamides. Depending on the chemical and physical characteristics of the starting compounds, the cyclocondensations proceeded under simple and mild (aqueous, solvent-free, ball-milling or/and microwave-assisted) conditions with no necessity for chromatographic purification of the products. The reaction was extended to leucinamide and salicylamide.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
