A solution of 5-phenyl-2,4-pentadienal (6.70 g) and pyruvic acid (3.0 mL) in 5 mL of methanol was stirred and chilled to 0-5° C. in an ice bath. To the chilled solution was added a solution of 35 mL of potassium hydroxide (3.5 g) in 10 mL of methanol dropwise over a period of 30 minutes. The remaining methanolic potassium hydroxide was added rapidly and the ice bath was removed. The reaction was allowed to warm to room temperature and stirred for another hour. The flask was then refrigerated overnight. The solid was collected by filtration, washed with 15 mL of methanol three times, 15 mL of ether and then air dried to afford 6.69 g of potassium 2-oxo-8-phenyl-3,5,7-octatrienoate as a yellow solid. 1H NMR (DMSO-d6, 300 MHz), δ(ppm) 7.52 (d, 2H), 7.32 (m, 3H), 7.10 (m, 2H), 6.83 (dd, 2H), 6.57 (dd, 1H), 6.13 (d, 1H).
