Oxidation of 1,3,5-trimethyladamantane and 7-hydroxy-1,3,5-trimethyladamantane by perfluoroperoxybutyric acid in perfluorobutyric acid is accompanied by fragmentation of the adamantane polyhedron with formation of cis-1,3,5-trimethyl-cis-3,5-bis(perfluorobutanoyloxymethyl)cyclohexaneacetic acid. The reaction of tert-butyl alcohol with perfluoroperoxyacetic acid simulates well the process of oxidative fragmentation of adamantane and its derivatives. The mechanisms of these transformations are discussed.
