Dear ChemDalf,

thank you for this interesting post about adamantane and derivatives. However there is a slight mistake

oncerning the word Diamonds. Why?

According to the following link and pictures, you must write : Making Diamondoids with ChemDraw

PLease note that Diamond and Graphite don ´t bear hydrogen atoms like in Diamondoid from Adamantane. They are not organic compounds.

For 1 and 2 p.e. you can see the presence of hydrogen in CS Chem NMR Pro or in ” Structure to name”.

Can you, please,correct the title for the Chemmazin Community.

Thank you in advance for your help.

JRG

Diamondoids, from left to right adamantane, diamantane, triamantane and one isomer of tetramantane
