METHOD OF PRODUCING 2-(ADAMANT-1-YLOXY)-ETHANOL

摘要

FIELD: chemistry. ^ SUBSTANCE: invention relates to a method of producing 2-(adamant-1-yloxy)ethanol used in synthesis of pharmaceutical preparations and having antiviral activity. The method involves adding 1-bromoadantane to potassium hydroxide solution in ethylene glycol and carrying out the reaction for 3 hours at 196-198C, and the initial product is extracted by neutralising the reaction mixture with 10% hydrochloric acid solution, extraction with chloroform and removing the solvent in a vacuum. ^ EFFECT: invention enables to obtain the end product using a simple and environmentally safe method. ^ 3 ex
