Procedure

A 60% dispersion of sodium hydride (0.095 g of dispersion, 0.057 g of NaH, 2.4 mmol) was triturated with anhydrous THF (3×20 ml). The pure sodium hydride was then suspended in anhydrous THF (10 ml) and cooled to 0° C. Methyl acetoacetate (0.227 g, 1.95 mmol) was added dropwise. After stirring the resulting colorless solution for 10 minutes at 0° C., butyllithium in hexanes (0.96 ml, 2.5M, 2.4 mmol) was added dropwise via syringe. After stirring the reaction mixture for another 10 minutes at 0° C., a solution of 5,5-diphenyl-2,4-pentadienal (0.410 g, 1.75 mmol) in anhydrous tetrahydrofuran (10 ml) was added slowly via syringe. After completion of the addition, the reaction was stirred for 10 minutes at 0° C. The reaction mixture was then quenched by pouring it into saturated aqueous ammonium chloride. After stirring vigorously for 5 minutes, the phases were separated and the aqueous phase was extracted with ether (3×25 ml). The combined organic phases were washed with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate (40 ml) and water (2×40 ml), dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo to give 0.610 g (98% yield) of methyl (E)-5-hydroxy-9,9-diphenyl-3-oxo-6,8-nonadienoate as a viscous liquid. Since this material was quite pure and unstable on silica gel, it was carried onto the next step without purification.
