Abstract
A novel process for the preparation of aminochromans of the general formula: ##STR1## wherein R is a lower alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms. In the process, nitrochromanones of the general formula: ##STR2## are reduced using zirconium oxide/isopropanol to give a mixture of a corresponding aminochromene: ##STR3## and a corresponding nitrochromene: ##STR4## The mixture is then hydrogenated with hydrogen in the presence of a hydrogenation catalyst to give the final product. The aminochromans are important intermediates for the preparation of hypolipidaemic pharmaceuticals.
