Provided is a simple and efficient method for producing 2-isopropylidene-5-methyl-4-hexenyl butyrate. More specifically, provided is a method for producing 2-isopropylidene-5-methyl-4-hexenyl butyrate, the method including the steps of: isomerizing 2-isopropenyl-5-methyl-4-hexenoic acid ester (1) into 2-isopropylidene-5-methyl-4-hexenoic acid ester (2), reducing thus formed 2-isopropylidene-5-methyl-4-hexenoic acid ester (2) into 2-isopropylidene-5-methyl-4-hexenol (3), and butyrylating thus formed 2-isopropylidene-5-methyl-4-hexenol (3) into 2-isopropylidene-5-methyl-4-hexenyl butyrate (4), wherein R represents a C1-10 hydrocarbon group.
