Abstract
The reaction of adamantane with carbon monoxide at -45 degrees divided by +20 degrees C over 0.5-2 h, catalyzed by the aprotic organic super acid CBr4 . 2AlBr(3), is described. The formylation of adamantane unde r CO atmosphere at 0 divided by +20 degrees C in the presence of methy lcyclopentane as a source of hydride ion affords 1-adamantanecarbaldeh yde (1) in yield 70-72% on adamantane for 1 h.
