According to the procedure of Farnum et. al (Synthesis 1972, 191-192.), water (1.35 L) is stirred at 80° C. and de-gassed by periodic evacuating and flushing with nitrogen (3×). K3FeCN6 (202 g, 615 mmol) and 2-methyl-indan-1-one (20 g, 137 mmol) are added. The mixture is stirred rapidly under nitrogen at 80° C. while aqueous concentrated ammonia solution (105 mL) is added over 30 minutes. Stirring is continued at 80° C. for 20 hours. When cool, the solution is made alkaline by addition of sodium hydroxide (2 g) and extracted with ethyl acetate (2×200 mL). The organic extract is concentrated to a volume of 200 ml and the product is extracted into aqueous HCl (200 mL, 1M). The acidic aqueous phase is separated, basified with sodium hydroxide, and extracted with ethyl acetate (2×100 mL). The organic layer is separated, dried (Na2SO4) and the solvent removed to give an orange oil.
