Procedure
This ester was dissolved in 7 ml of ethanol/THF=1/1 and treated under argon with 2.1 ml of 2N NaOH. The mixture was left to react at room temperature for 64 h. and then poured into ice/HCl/ethyl acetate. The organic phase was washed twice with water, dried and evaporated. Recrystallization from hexane/ethyl acetate=7/3 yielded 153 mg of (2E,4E,6E)-(5RS,9SR,10RS)-7-(3-butoxy-10-hydroxy-5,9-dimethyl-6,7,8,9-tetrahydro-5,9-methano-5H-benzocyclohepten-2-yl)-3-methyl-hepta-2,4,6-trienoic acid as yellow crystals of m.p. 176-178°.
