Procedure

To a solution of 5.2 g (39 mmol) of 5-aminoindan in 15 mL of dioxane kept in an ice-bath was added dropwise 8 mL (8.6 g, 84 mmol) of acetic anhydride. The solution was stirred at room temperature for 16 h. It was diluted with 70 mL of water. The mixture was filtered, washed with water, and dried to leave a gray solid 6.21 g (91%). 1H NMR (CDCl3), 2.069 (m, 2), 2.165 (s, 3), 2.879 (m, 4), 7.20 (mb, 1), 7.145 (s, 2), 7.441 (s, 1).
