Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on the computed structures, energy, and stability of various diamondoid compounds like diamantane, triamantane, and hexamantane, using advanced quantum chemistry methods.
- It finds that larger diamonds demonstrate less strain per carbon atom and that the stability of diamondoid cations increases with size, while radical stability varies only slightly.
- Experimental results reveal that reactions with electrophiles lead to higher selectivity for tertiary products, and diamond compounds that can form radical cations exhibit high reactivity and selectivity upon oxidation.
The synthesis of the (CH)12 hydrocarbon [D(3d)]-octahedrane (heptacyclo[6.4.0.
