Abstract

Compounds of formula ##STR1## in which R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are hydrogen or halogen, are prepared by reacting an aldehyde of formula: ##STR2## with CHBr.sub.3 and KOH in a mixture of an inert solvent and water. Further an ester of compound (I) wherein R.sub.1 is H and R.sub.2 is 2-Cl is reacted with 4,5,6,7-tetrahydrothieno[3,2-c]pyridine to produce a compound of formula III: ##STR3## which is useful as a medicament.
