Procedure

5.4 g of potassium hydroxide was dissolved in 100 ml of isopropanol. 14 g of ethyl 3-[4-(4,8-dimethyl-1,3,7-nonatrienyl)phenyl]-2-butenoate was added to the solution under heating, reflux and stirring. After 30 min, the resulting solution was poured into ice/water and extracted with 100 ml of n-hexane. The aqueous layer was made acidic with dilute hydrochloric acid, extracted with ethyl ether and washed with water. After drying over magnesium sulfate, the product was concentrated and the resulting concentrate was crystallized from n-hexane to obtain 8 g of intended 3-[4-(4,8-dimethyl-1,3,7-nonatrienyl)phenyl]-2-butenoic acid as light yellow crystals.
