5-(2,4-Dichlorophenyl)-3-methylpenta-2,4-dienoic acid ethyl ester (5 g, 0.0184 mol) was dissolved in THF (125 mL). Water (50 mL), MeOH (50 mL), and NaOH (18.44 mL of a 2M solution in water, 2 eq) were then added. After 6 hours, TLC analysis showed complete conversion of the starting materials and the mixture was acidified to pH 1 by addition of 6N HCl. The resulting solid was collected to give 4.24 g of 5-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-3-methylpenta-2,4-dienoic acid.
