• Description: Adamantane is a hydrocarbon with the chemical formula C10H16. It is a colorless, crystalline solid at room temperature and pressure. Adamantane is an aromatic hydrocarbon, as well as being a saturated compound. It is also classified as an alkane, although its chemical properties are more like those of a halogenated aromatic hydrocarbon. Adamantane has two hydrogen atoms bonded to one carbon atom; this gives it the chemical formula CH2=CH-CH3. Adamantanes are found in many natural products, such as the oils of plants and animals, coal tar, petroleum, and natural gas. The adamantanes are used in organic synthesis for reactions involving electron-deficient compounds such as nitro groups. They are also used in the manufacture of semiconductors and other electronic devices. Adamantanes have been studied for use as drugs because they can be easily modified to have desirable properties such as solubility in water or fat solubility.
