300 ml of butylene oxide are added to 30.5 g of [1-(1,1,3,3-tetramethyl-5-indanyl)ethyl]-triphenylphosphonium bromide and 8 g of 4-ethoxycarbonylbenzaldehyde and the mixture is then stirred at 65° C. for 12 hours in an inert gas atmosphere. The resulting clear solution is cooled, introduced into ca 500 ml of ice/water and extracted twice with hexane. The organic extract is extracted three times with methanol/water, dried over sodium sulphate and concentreated under reduced pressure. The residue is purified by adsorption on silica gel using hexane/ether (19:1) for the elution. The p-[(E)-2-(1,1,3,3-tetramethyl-5-indanyl)propenyl]-benzoic acid ethyl ester obtained from the eluate melts at 70°-71° C. after recrystallization from ether/hexane.
