The invention concerns the new method of synthesising compounds of formula (I), wherein R1 and R2, which are the same or different, are each a branched or linear (C1-C8) alkoxy grouping or together form, with the carbon atom bearing them, a 1,3-dioxane, 1,3-dioxolane or 1,3-dioxepane ring. The invention is useful in the synthesis of ivabradine, of the salts thereof for addition to a pharmaceutically acceptable acid and of the hydrates thereof. |
