A mixture of 5-hydroxy-1-methoxy-6,6-dimethyl-hepta-1,4-dien-3-one (Step 1.7) (6.8 g, 36.9 mmol) and TFA (5.65 mL, 74 mmol, 2 eq) in benzene (250 mL) is stirred for 14 h at rt and concentrated. Purification of the residue by silica gel column chromatography (Hex/EtOAc, 1:0→75:25) provides 5.74 g of the title compound as a yellow oil: ESI-MS: 153.1 [M+H]+; tR=3.21 min (System 1); TLC: Rf=0.22 (Hex/EtOAc, 1:1).
