A process for the preparation of a compound of formula (I), or a salt thereof wherein R is H, C<SUB>1</SUB>-C<SUB>8 </SUB>alkyl, aryl or aryl-C<SUB>1</SUB>-C<SUB>8 </SUB>alkyl; comprising the reaction between a compound of formula (II) wherein R<SUB>1 </SUB>and R<SUB>2 </SUB>are independently hydrogen, C<SUB>1</SUB>-C<SUB>8 </SUB>alkyl, aryl, aryl-C<SUB>1</SUB>-C<SUB>8 </SUB>alkyl, or R<SUB>1 </SUB>and R<SUB>2</SUB>, taken together, form a -(CH<SUB>2</SUB>)<SUB>m</SUB>-V-(CH<SUB>2</SUB>)<SUB>n</SUB>- group, in which V is NR<SUB>3 </SUB>or C(R<SUB>3</SUB>)<SUB>2 </SUB>wherein R<SUB>3 </SUB>is hydrogen, C<SUB>1</SUB>-C<SUB>8 </SUB>alkyl, aryl or aryl-C<SUB>1</SUB>-C<SUB>8 </SUB>alkyl; and m and n, which can be the same or different, are 1 or 2; with a compound of formula (III) in which R<SUB>4 </SUB>and R<SUB>5 </SUB>are independently C<SUB>1</SUB>-C<SUB>8 </SUB>alkyl, aryl or aryl-C<SUB>1</SUB>-C<SUB>8 </SUB>alkyl; in the presence of a Ni (II) salt, an organic ligand and a basic agent, to obtain a compound of formula (I) wherein R is C<SUB>1</SUB>-C<SUB>8 </SUB>alkyl, aryl or aryl-C<SUB>1</SUB>-C<SUB>8 </SUB>alkyl and, if desired, its conversion to a compound of formula (I) wherein R is hydrogen or to a salt thereof.
