In the transformations of organomagnesium compounds of the adamantane series involving aldehydes, ketones, esters, and acid chlorides the nature of the reaction products and their yields are determined by the steric hindrances at the reaction centers of the organomagnesium and carbonyl compounds and by the ease of homolysis of the C-H bonds of the carbonyl reagent.The retardation of the faster addition of the Grignard reagent at the carbonyl group as a result of steric hindrances permits homolytic removal of a hydrogen atom from the carbonyl compounds by the adamantyl radical.
