Procedure
Hydrolysis of (Z)-5,5-bis(2-fluorophenyl)-2,4-pentadienoic acid ethyl ester (0.4 g) in methanol (5 mL) was carried out as before using 4N sodium hydroxide (0.6 mL). After acidification, the product was extracted into dichloromethane (2×30 mL). The combined dried extracts were evaporated and the residue crystallized from ether-hexane to yield 0.35 g of (Z)-5,5-bis(2-fluorophenyl)-2,4-pentadienoic acid mp 147°-148° C.
