ADAMANTANE DERIVATIVE AND PROCESS FOR PRODUCING THE SAME

摘要

An adamantane derivative characterized by having a structure represented by the general formula (I); and a process for producing an adamantane derivative represented by the general formula (I) wherein n is 0, which comprises reacting an adamantanone compound with a nitrile compound and then with an acid halide or acid anhydride of a (meth)acrylic acid compound. The adamantane derivative characterized by having a structure represented by the general formula (I) is a novel adamantane derivative useful as a monomer for a functional resin such as a photosensitive resin for use in the field of photolithography. It can be efficiently produced by the process.
