Abstract

A two-hydroxyphenyl adamantane-Type epoxy resin oligomer, namely 1,3-bis(4- (2,3-epoxpropyloxy)phenyl) adamantine (BEPAD), has been synthesized and structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The unit cell of C28H32O4: Mr = 432.5, monoclinic, space group P21/n, with a = 10.510(6), b = 16.972(9), c = 13.374(7) Å, β = 109.356(6)o, V = 2251(2) Å3, Z = 4, Dc = 1.277 Mgm-3 and μ(MoKα) = 0.084 mm-1. In BEPAD, the methylene and epoxide rings on two ends are statistically disordered. The intermolecular interactions are also discussed, suggesting that the intermolecular interactions in BEPAD are stronger than that in the crystals of similar compounds due to the large adamantine group between the two benzene rings.
