Procedure

A solution of 0.5 g. (12.5 mmol) of sodium hydroxide in 4 ml. of water was added to a solution of 1.0 g. (3 mmole) of methyl 2E,4E,6Z,8E-3,7-dimethyl-6-fluoro-9-(2,4,5-trimethyl-3-thienyl)-2,4,6,8-nonatetraenoate in 10 ml. of absolute ethanol. The mixture was stirred at 45° C. for 4 hours. The solution was cooled to room temperature, acidified with 3 N hydrochloric acid and filtered. The crude orange solid was purified by silica gel chromatography, euted with hexane-ethyl acetate (3:5 parts by volume) and crystallized from hexane-ethyl acetate (1:1 parts by volume) to give 600 mg. (62% yield) of 2E,4E,6Z,8E-3,7-dimethyl-6-fluoro-9-(2,4,5-trimethyl-3-thienyl)-2,4,6,8-nonatetraenoic acid orange crystals, m.p. 217°-223° C.
