Abstract
The preparation of diamantanedicarboxylic acids with the carboxy groups at the tertiary carbon atoms of the diamantane skeleton is described. The procedure comprises bromination or oxidation of 1- and 4-diamantanecarboxylic acid and Koch-Haaf carboxylation of the reaction products. Of the four diamantanedicarboxylic acids synthesized, two - 1,4- and 1,7-diamantanedicarboxylic acids - have not been so far described.
