3-Carboxy-1-adamantaneacetic acid - Introduction

3-(Carboxymethyl)-1-adamantanecarboxylic acid is an organic compound with the chemical formula C12H18O4. It is a white crystalline powder, soluble in water and organic solvents such as methanol and ethanol.

3-(Carboxymethyl)-1-adamantanecarboxylic acid has a variety of uses. It is often used as a process reagent and intermediate, and can be used in organic synthesis to synthesize other organic compounds, such as antiviral drugs and fluorescent dyes. In addition, it also has certain antibacterial properties and can be used as an antibacterial agent.

3-(Carboxymethyl)-1-adamantanecarboxylic acid is generally obtained by the functional reaction of adamantane. First, adamantane and bromoacetic acid are reacted to give adamantane methyl bromide, then adamantane methyl bromide is reacted with sodium cyanide to give adamantane carbonitrile, and finally, adamantane carbonitrile is hydrolyzed with alkaline to give 3-(Carboxymethyl)-1-adamantanecarboxylic acid.

Regarding safety information, 3-(Carboxymethyl)-1-adamantanecarboxylic acid is corrosive and may cause irritation to the eyes, skin and respiratory system. Appropriate protective equipment should be worn during use to avoid contact with or inhalation of its dust. In addition, it should be stored in a dry, well-ventilated place, away from fire and flammable substances.
