Photochemical Preparation of 1,3,5,7-Tetracyanoadamantane and Its Conversion to 1,3,5,7-Tetrakis(aminomethyl)adamantane

Abstract: New adamantane derivatives 1 and 2 that bear functionalized one-carbon extensions at all four bridgehead positions have been prepared. Radical nucleophilic substitution (S(RN)1) reaction of 1,3,5,7-tetrabromoadamantane with cyanide produces 1,3,5,7-tetracyanoadamantane (1), which was reduced with borane reagents to 1,3,5,7-tetrakis(aminomethyl)adamantane (2). Improvements in the preparation of 1,3,5,7-tetrahaloadamantanes (halogen = Br, Cl, I) are also reported. [structure--see text]

“…26 However, 1,3,5,7-tetrabromoadamantane is the most chemically inert entity in the row and the substitution of halogens via the S N1 mechanism demands harsh conditions. It was not only until the recent paper of Lee et al, 27 in which photochemical cyanodebromination of 1,3,5,7-tetrabromoadamantane was described that a facile route to various tetrasubstituted adamantanes, including the fundamental 1,3,5,7-tetracarboxyadamantane, became available. 'Click chemistry' of tetrazole formation, 28,29 by cycloaddition of azides to nitriles in the presence of ZnCl 2 makes the tetrakis-tetrazole derivative of adamantane especially affordable (Scheme 2).…”

“…The thermogravimetric (TG-DTA) analyses were performed using a Netzsch STA 449 C Jupiter instrument coupled with a Pfeiffer Thermostar GSD 300 mass spectrometer at 5-10°C min −1 heating rate under inert gas flow using corundum sample holders. Alternatively, the TG data were collected using a Netzsch 209 F3 Tarsus instrument in a protecting flow of nitrogen (10 ml min −1 ) at 27 and 28.4 g sodium azide in 500 ml of DMF, 39.6 g of anhydrous ZnCl 2 was added under stirring. The formed mixture was refluxed for 48 h maintaining anhydrous conditions.…”

“…The synthesis of tetra‐halogenated compounds with the same halogen at each bridgehead position is performed in one single step (Table : compounds 1 , 2, and 3 ) . However, these products are quite difficult to functionalize to obtain more complex structures due to low solubility and reactivity.…”
