3-Ethyladamantane-1-carboxylic acid is a hydroxy naphthenic acid that is used as a raw material for the manufacture of esters and amides. 3-Ethyladamantane-1-carboxylic acid is produced by the decarbonylation of 2,2,3,3-tetramethylcyclopentanediol. The homogeneity of 3-ethyladamantane-1-carboxylic acid can be improved by techniques such as dilution and chromatography. The sources of 3-ethyladamantane-1-carboxylic acid are decarboxylation processes for the production of esters and amides from the corresponding alcohols or diacids. The profile of this substance can be monitored in the environment using gas chromatography with flame ionization detection (GC/FID).
