A convenient method for dichlorophosphorylation of adamantanols and 1-adamantyl alcohols with phosphorus trichloride in trifluoroacetic acid is described. The dichlorophosphoryl group is selectively introduced to the different positions of the adamantane nucleus as well as to the α-position of the side chain. The dichlorophosphorylation of 1-adamantylmethanol is found to be accompanied by adamantane-homoadamantane rearrangement leading to 3-homoadamantylphosphonic dichloride in 70% yield.
