Procedure

A mixture of 2-aminoindan hydrochloride (13.3 g, 78 mmol), acetic anhydride (6 g, 0.157 mmol) and saturated sodium bicarbonate (100 mL) in ether (100 mL) was stirred at room temperature for 1 h. The organic phase was separated, and the aqueous layer back washed with ether. The combined organic layer was washed with saturated chloride solution, dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and evaporated to give the acetamide (13.6 g) in quantitative yield.
