β¦ Synopsis
A recent investigation of hydrogen abstraction by the trichloromethyl radical from l-substituted adamantanes has been reported by us (1). It was observed that appreciable halogen abstraction by the radical occurred for 1-fluoroadamantane and l-chloroadamantane. Similar halogen abstraction from adamantanes has been also observed using other carbon radicals (2).
In order to re-examine the results of our previous study, we have repeated our experiments using bromine generated photolytically from N-bromosuccinimide as the abstracting agent.
The reactions are carried out competitively in carbon tetrachloride. Four products are obtained from adamantane.
These are, in order of elution from a 5% SE 30 gas chroinatographic column, 1-chloroadamantan8, 2-chloroadamantane, l-bromoadsmantane and 2-bromoadamantane.

The configurations of several 1,4-(= 2,5-l disubstituted adamantanes have been determined by means of X-ray diffraction.
