As before, (E)-5,5-bis(2-fluorophenyl)-2,4-pentadienoic acid ethyl ester (1.7 g) in methanol (15 mL) was carried out using 4N sodium hydroxide (2.5 mL). After acidification, the product was extracted into dichloromethane (2×50 mL). The combined extracts were dried and evaporated and the residue crystallized from ether-hexane to provide 1.45 g of (E)-5,5-bis(2-fluorophenyl)-2,4-pentadienoic acid, mp 159°-160° C.
