The Study on Kinetic Patterns of Halogenadamantanes Nitrolysis
The kinetics of nitrolysis of bridge and bridgehead halogen derivatives of the adamantine series in the fuming nitric acid have been studied, and the effective rate constants have been determined. The reaction is described by the pseudo-first-order kinetic equation. An increase in the number of halogen atoms in the framework reduces reactivity. With a decrease in the electronegativity of halogen atoms, the reactivity of the substrates increases.
