(57) Abstract: The present invention is a method for producing a 3-aryl-1-indanamine represented by Structural Formula I and a physiologically acceptable salt thereof. In Structure I, the phenyl ring A may be unsubstituted or substituted with 1-4 substituents. R 1 is an aromatic group which may be substituted or unsubstituted. R 2 and R 3 are each independently hydrogen, an aliphatic group, a substituted aliphatic group, an aromatic group, a substituted aromatic group, an aralkyl group or a substituted aralkyl group. Alternatively, R 2 and R 3 together with the nitrogen substituent on the indane ring form a non-aromatic ring system having 1-2 heteroatoms. Embedded image |
