Reaction Steps

157 g. of ethyl 3,4,7-trimethyl-2,6-nonadienecarboxylate are dissolved in 300 ml. of benzene and added dropwise while cooling with ice to a solution of 370 g. of 70% sodium bis-(methoxyethoxy)-aluminum hydride in benzene. The mixture is then stirred at 40° C. for 2 hours and subsequently worked up with water/ether as described earlier. The 3,4,7-trimethyl-2,6-nonadien-1-ol obtained boils at 79°-84° C./0.09 mmHg.
