Accordingly, the present invention provides a compound of formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof:
wherein
R*, is hydrogen or C-*__g al oxy; R2 is halo; R3 is halo; L is 0 or NH; and

Alternatively, COL in formula (I) may be replaced by a bioisostere therefor, for example, 1,2,4-oxadiazole and the other groups of structure h) described in EP-A-377967 (Beecham Group p.I.e.).
The pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compounds of the formula (I) include acid addition salts with conventional acids such as hydrochloric, hydrobromic, boric, phosphoric, sulphuric acids and pharmaceutically acceptable organic acids such as acetic, tartaric, maleic, citric, succinic, benzoic, ascorbic, methanesulphonic, α-keto glutaric, α-glycerophosphoric, and glucose-1-phosphoric acids.

Suitable examples of Rχ include methyl, ethyl and n- and iso-propyl; and benzyl and phenethyl. Suitable examples of T include halide such as chloride, bromide and iodide.
Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable salts also include internal salts such as N-oxides.

It will of course be realised that some of the compounds cf the formula (I) have chiral or prochiral centres and thus are capable of existing in a number of stereoisomeric forms including enantiomers.

If a group Q*^ is a halide, or C0Q*-_, forms a mixed anhydride, 0 then the reaction is preferably carried out at non-extreme temperatures in an inert non-hydroxylic solvent, such as • benzene, dichloromethane, toluene, diethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran (THF) or dimethylformamide (DMF) . It is also preferably carried out in the presence of an acid 5 acceptor, such as an organic base, in particular a tertiary amine, such as triethylamine, trimethylamine, pyridine or picoline, some of which can also function as the solvent. Alternatively, the acid acceptor can be inorganic, such as calcium carbonate, sodium carbonate or potassium carbonate. Temperatures of 0°-100°C, in particular 10-80°C are suitable.
If a group Q-^ is C1-4 alkoxy, phenoxy or activated hydrocarbyloxy then the reaction is preferably carried out in an inert polar solvent, such as toluene or dimethylformamide. It is also preferred that the group Q**_ is CI3CO- and that the reaction is carried out in toluene at reflux temperature.
If a group Q*j_ is hydroxy, then the reaction is generally carried out in an inert non-hydroxylic solvent, such as dichloromethane, THF or D F optionally in the presence of a dehydrating agent such as a carbodiimide, for example dicyclohexylcarbodiimide.

Generally, higher reaction temperatures are employed with less active compounds whereas lower temperatures are employed with the more active compounds.
If a group Q**_ is carboxylic acyloxy, then the reaction is preferably carried in substantially the same manner as the reaction when (_}•_ is halide. Suitable examples of acyloxy leaving groups include C1-4 alkanoyloxy and C1- alkoxycarbonyloxy, in which case the reaction is preferably carried out in an inert solvent, such as dichloromethane, at a non-extreme temperature for example ambient temperatures in the presence of an acid acceptor, such as triethylamine. C*]__4 alkoxycarbonyloxy leaving groups may be generated in situ by treatment of the corresponding compound wherein Q**_ is hydroxy with a C1-4 alkyl chloroformate. If a group Q*^ is activated hydrocarbyloxy then the reaction is preferably carried out in an inert polar solvent, such as dimethylformamide. It' is also.preferred that the activated hydrocarbyloxy group is a pentachlorophenyl ester and that the reaction is carried out at ambient temperature.
When Y is 0 the compound of formula (III) may be in the form of a reactive derivative thereof, which is often a salt, such as the lithium, sodium or potassium salt.
An R2' or R ' group which is convertible R2 or R include a hydrogen substituent which is convertible to a halogen substituent by halogenation using conventional halogenating agents.
Z' when other than Z may be wherein R is replaced by R' which is a hydrogenolysable protecting group which is benzyl optionally substituted by one or two groups selected from halo, C1-4 alkoxy and C-__^ alkyl. Such benzyl groups may, for example, be removed, when R1/R2 is not halogen, by conventional transition metal catalysed hydrogenolysis to give compounds of the formula (I) wherein R is hydrogen.
This invention also provides a further process for the preparation of a compound of the formula (I) wherein R is methyl or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, which comprises N-methylating a compound of formula (I) wherein R is hyirogen, and optionally forming a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of the resulting compound of the formula (I) . In this further process of the invention
'N-methylation' may be achieved by reaction with a compound CH Q2 wherein Q2 is a leaving group.
Suitable values for Q2 include groups displaced by nucleophils such as Cl, Br, I, OS02CH3 or OSO^ H^pCϊ^, preferably Cl, Br or I.
The reaction may be carried out. under conventional alkylation conditions for example in an inert solvent such as dimethylformamide in the presence of an acid acceptor such as potassium carbonate. Generally the reaction is carried out at non-extreme temperature such as at ambient cr slightly above.
Alternatively, 'N-methylation' may be effected under conventional reductive alkylation conditions.
Interconverting R in the compound of the formula (III) before coupling with the compound of the formula (II) is also possible. Such interconversions are effected conveniently under the above conditions. It is desirable to protect any amine function with a group readily removable by acidolysis such as a C2_7 alkanoyl group, before R/Z interconversion.
It is often convenient in the preparation of such a compound cf formula (III) to prepare the corresponding compound wherein the methyl group is replaced by alkoxycarbonyl. Such compounds may then be reduced using a strong reductant such as lithium aluminium hydride to the corresponding compound of formula (II) .
The benzoic acid derivative intermediates of formula (II) are known or are preparable analogously to, or routinely from, known compounds. When R2 is fluoro, the intermediate may be prepared by fluorination of the corresponding R is hydrogen compound, using a suitable fluorinating catalyst, such as trifluoromethyl hypofluorite, as described in Description 1 hereinafter.
Compounds of the formula (III) are generally prepared from the corresponding exocyclic keto derivative of the azabicyclic side chain, prepared by condensation methods, often using a substituted piperidine. They may be prepared by processes described in the aforementioned Patent Publications relating to values of the side chain Z.
It will be realised that in the compounds of the formula (I) having a tropane, granatane or oxa/thia/aza-granatane side chain, the -COL- linkage has an endo orientation with respect to the ring of the bicyclic moiety to which it is attached. A mixture of endo and βxo isomers of the compound of the formula (I) may be synthesised non-stereospecifically and the desired iso er separated conventionally therefrom e.g. by chromatography; or alternatively the endo isomer may if desired by synthesised from the corresponding endo form of the compound of the formula (II) . Corresponding geometric isomeric pairs are possible for the isoquinuclidine, isogranatane, oxa/thia-isogranatane and isotropane side chains.
Pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compounds of this invention may be formed conventionally.
The salts may be formed for example by reaction of the base compound of formula (I) with a pharmaceutically acceptable organic or inorganic acid.

5-HT3 Receptor Antagonist Activity
Compounds are evaluated for antagonism of the von Bezold-Jarisch reflex evoked by 5-HT in the anaesthetised rat according to the following method:
Male rats 250-350g, are anaesthetised with urethane (1.25g/kg intraperitoneally) and blood pressure and heart rate are recorded as described by Fozard J.R. et al., J. Cardiovasc. Pharmacol. 2, 229-245 (1980) . A submaximal dose of 5-HT (usually 6μg/kg) is given repeatedly by the intravenous route and changes in heart rate quantified. Compounds are given intravenously and the concentration required to reduce the 5-HT-evoked response to 50% of the control response (EDC ) is then determined.
