Conclusions
-
1.
The sole route of reaction of the episulfide ring of 2,2′-epithio-2-(2′-adamantyl)adamantanes on treatment with LiAlH4, HCl, SCl2, or HCOOH is elimination of the sulfur atom. Reactions with HCl or SCl2 also result in polychlorination with the formation of chlorinated olefins.
-
2.
A convenient method is described for the preparation of endo-4e-chloroadamantylidenedamantane by elimination of the sulfur atom from endo-4e-chloro-2,2′-epithio-2-(2′-adamantyl)adamantane by treatment with LiAlH4.
