Uses
1-Adamantyl isothiocyanate was used in the synthesis of:
- tris(2-mercapto-1-adamantylimidazolyl)hydroborato ligand
- 1-adamantyl-3-(2-(7-methoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroacridin-9-ylamino)alkane)thiourea 2,3-dihydroxysuccinates
General Description
1-Adamantyl isothiocyanate undergoes nucleophilic addition reaction with pyrrolidine, piperidine, 3-hydroxypiperidine and 4-hydroxypiperidine to yield
N′,N′-disubstituted
N-(1-adamantyl)-thiourea derivatives.
Purification Methods
Dissolve it in Et2O, wash with H2O, dry (Na2SO4), evaporate and sublime the residue in a vacuum at 140o, then recrystallise it from MeOH. Irritant. [Stetter & Wulff Chem Ber 95 2302 1962.]
