The resulting mixture was heater to 45° C. for 4 hours, at which time the pH was confirmed to be >12(45% sodium hydroxide added if necessary) and the phases were separated. To the organic phase water (64 mL) was added and the pH was adjusted to 2 with 33% aqueous sulfuric acid. The aqueous phase was separated, diluted with water and mixed with toluene. The pH was adjusted to 6 with 25% aqueous sodium hydroxide and the phases separated. The aqueous phase was extracted again with toluene, ensuring a pH=6. The combined organic layers were concentrated in vacuo to yield 51 g of crude racemic N-propargyl-1-aminoindan as a yellow oil.
