2-(1-Adamantylimino)-5-methyl-1,3-oxathiolane 1 was synthesised from the reaction between adamantan-1-ol and 1-thiocyanopropan-2-ol in sulphuric acid. Compound 1 undergoes ring opening followed by elimination to afford novel adamantane alkoxyureas 3 a-d and 5 a, b with a number of oxyamino nucleophiles 2 a-d and 4 a, b.
