Adamantanone


2-Adamantanone

Adamantanone is the ketone of adamantane. A white solid, it is prepared by oxidation of adamantane. It is a precursor to several adamantane derivatives.{{cite journal |doi=10.15227/orgsyn.060.0113|title=Reductive Coupling of Carbonyls to Alkenes: Adamantylideneadamantane|journal=Organic Syntheses|year=1981|volume=60|page=113|first1=Michael P.|last1=Fleming|first2=John E.|last2=McMurry

Adamantanone and some related polycyclic ketones, are reluctant to form enolates. This barrier arises because the resulting carbanion cannot exist in conjugation with the carbonyl pi-bond.
