Addition of trifluoroacetic acid to adamantylideneadamantane in dichloromethane solution under oxygen in the dark results in a rapid oxygenation of the olefin.The reaction is proposed to proceed through a mechanism involving proton-induced electon transfer from the olefin to oxygen giving its radical cation and a hydroperoxy radical followed by their subsequent reactions.

The reactions of 4,4-dimethylspiro[adamantane-2,3'-[1,2]-dioxetane] (1a) and biadamantylidene-1,2-dioxetane (2a) in dichloromethane, at different reaction temperatures, with tris(2,4-dibromophenyl) aminium hexachloroantimonate A afford high yields of the rearranged ketones 2- methyladamantyl-methyl ketone (3) and spiro[adamantane-2,4'-homoadamantan- 5'-one] (8) respectively. A cation radical monodeoxygenation process is suggested.
