After acidifying to pH<2 with dil. hydrochloric acid, the reaction mixture was concentrated in vacuo and the residue was stirred with water and EA. A precipitate which appeared here was filtered off with suction, washed with EA and then combined with the acidic aqueous phase. After rendering the mixture alkaline, it was extracted with EA and the organic phase was dried with magnesium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo. 3.6 g of 7-nitro-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1-naphthylamine were obtained.
