| abstract |
The present invention is a method of preparing a 3-aryl-1-indanamine represented by structural formula I:and physiologically acceptable salts thereof.In structure I, phenyl ring A can be unsubstituted or substituted with 1-4 substitutents.R1 is an aromatic group which can be substituted or unsubstituted.R2 and R3 are each, independently, hydrogen, an aliphantic group, a substituted aliphatic group, an aromatic group, a substituted aromatic group, an aralkyl group, or a substituted aralkyl group. Alternatively, R2 and R3, taken together with the nitrogen substitutent on the indan ring, form a non-aromatic ring system having 1-2 heteroatoms. |
