The reaction solution was cooled to room temperature, heptane (230 mL) was added thereto, and 35% hydrochloric acid (177 g) was added dropwise thereto. After separation of liquid, the organic layer was washed with water (230 mL), and the solvent was evaporated therefrom under a reduced pressure. Thus, 4,6-octadienoic acid (d) was obtained (90.6 g, yield 95%).
