Abstract

F-4-Oxahomoadamantan-5-one, F-4-protoadamantanone, and F-adamantane-2,4-dione have been synthesized for the first time by aerosol direct fluorination of their corresponding hydrocarbons. UV irradiation of F-4-oxahomoadamantan-5-one produces F-oxaadamantane, the corresponding decarbonylation product: its first reported synthesis. UV irradiation of F-4-protoadamantanone gave F-noradamantane, the same product as from UV irradiation of F-adamantanone. All new products were characterized by mass spectrometry, 19F NMR, FT-IR spectroscopy, and elemental analysis.
