Abstract: Adamantane and its derivatives have been introduced into many drugs for current clinical research and some of them are used for the treatment of neurological disease and/or used as the antiviral agents as well as the agents against type-2 diabetes. Recently, there have been many relevant research reported for developing medicinal chemistry by employing the adamantyl group. In this paper, a new adamantane-based compound (3-phenyl-adaman-tane-1-carboxylic acid, PACA) was synthesized and characterized by X-ray diffraction(XRD), thermogravimeric analysis(TGA), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR), etc., which should be a beneficial complement or extension to the existing adamantyl-based materials.

Key words: Adamantane, Cage-like molecule, Medicinal chemistry, Single crystal
