The reaction of 1-bromoadamantane and magnesium was studied preparatively and kinetically.Under the normal conditions for the production of Grignard reagents 1-adamantylmagnesium bromide is formed with a yield of up 64percent.Molecular oxygen increases the rate of this reaction.The reaction rate is determined by the diffusion of the bromide to the surface of the magnesium, by the desorption of the organomagnesium compound to the surface of the magnesium, and by the presence and density of the "black layer".
