Let G = E${\ast}_{A}F$, where A is a finitely generated abelian subgroup. We prove a criterion for G to be {A}-double coset separable. Applying this result, we show that polygonal products of central subgroup separable groups, amalgamating trivial intersecting central subgroups, are double coset separable relative to certain central subgroups of their vertex groups. Finally we show that such polygonal products are conjugacy separable. It follows that polygonal products of polycyclic-by-finite groups, amalgamating trivial intersecting central subgroups, are conjugacy separable.

We find some conditions to derive the conjugacy separability of the free product of conjugacy separable split extensions amalgamated along cyclic retracts. These conditions hold for any double coset separable groups and free-by-cyclic groups with nontrivial center. It was known that free-by-finite, polycyclic-by-finite, and fuchsian groups are double coset separable. Hence free products of those groups amalgamated along cyclic retracts are conjugacy separable.
