In 350 ml of anhydrous ethanol was dissolved 17.4 g of sodium metal, and to this was added dropwise 160 g of methyl 4,4-dimethoxyacetoacetate with stirring at room temperature. One hour later, geranyl bromide prepared from 130 g of geraniol was added dropwise to the above-obtained mixture under ice-cooling. The mixture was then allowed to stand overnight at room temperature and refluxed for one hour. To this reaction mixture was added 42 g of sodium hydroxide in a mixture of 1.4 1. of ethanol and 1.18 1. of water, and the mixture was heated under reflux for 6 hours and extracted with n-hexane. The n-hexane extract was distilled under reduced pressure to give 134 g of the desired product, b.p. 92°-95° C./0.05 mmHg.
