GENERAL
DESCRIPTION & APPLICATIONS
|
Adamantane consists of four cyclohexanes fused each other in chair
conformations. It is the most stable isomer of formula, C10H16; one of the
highest melting point hydrocarbons (> 210 C); boiling point cannot be determined
directly as it sublimes easily. Its stability is from strain free and highly
symmetrical structure (all C-C bonds are set in and all Cs are tetrahedral). Its systematical name is tricyclo[3.3.1.1(3,7)]decane which
means bicyclo[3.3.1]decane with an extra one-carbon bridge between C3 and C7. An
alkyl substituent is axial in one ring and equatorial in another. Polymantanes
have the same structure as the diamond lattice featuring highly symmetrical and
strain free and are named as diamondoids . The general molecular formula of homologous diamondoid is
C4n+6H4n+12.
Diamondoids have one or more cages and are called diamantane, triamantane, and polymantanes.
There are numerous structural isomers as well. Aadamantane itself
is the simplest
diamondoid. Some examples are; iceane (C12H18),
diadamantane (C14H20),
triadamantane (C18H24),
isotetramantane (C22H28),
cyclohexamantane (C26H30),
superadamantane
(C35H36).
Natural diamondoids are extracted and purified from petroleum deposits.
Diamondoids are being investigated in the new field of
nanotechnoloy. Clinically, amantane and its derivatives are employed chiefly for the synthesis of
antiviral drugs as well as neurological drugs such as rimantadine
and Parkinson’s disease drugs. Their unique structures have the possibility to
be applied to produce a broad range of biologically and pharmaceutically active
drugs such as anticancer and anti-microbial agents. |
