Abstract

Diamantane was synthesized in 91–97% yield by skeletal isomerization of a mixture of hydrogenated cyclohepta-1,3,5-triene dimers, pentacyclo[8.4.0.03,7.04,14.06,11]tetradecane and pentacyclo-[7.5.0.02,8.05,14.07,11]tetradecane, at a ratio of 3: 2 in the presence of ionic liquid [Et3NH]+ [Al2Cl7].
