A process for preparing a compound of formula (I): <CHEM> or a tautomeric form thereof or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, or a pharmaceutically acceptable solvate thereof, wherein: A<1> represents a substituted or unsubstituted aromatic heterocyclyl group; R<1> represents a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, an acyl group, an aralkyl group, wherein the aryl moiety may be substituted or unsubstituted, or a substituted or unsubstituted aryl group; A<2> represents a benzene ring having in total up to five substituents; and n represents an integer in the range of from 2 to 6, which process comprises catalytically reducing a compound of formula (II): <CHEM> wherein A<1>, R<1>, A<2> and n are as defined in relation to formula (I), characterised in that the reduction reaction is carried out using a hydrogen pressure above 20psi; and thereafter if required forming a pharmaceutically acceptable salt and/or a pharmaceutically acceptable solvate of the compound of formula (I). |
