The present invention relates to a process for preparing a 3,7-dimethylalkane compound (3): wherein n is 5 or 6, the process comprising: subjecting a nucleophilic reagent, 2,6-dimethyloctyl compound (1): wherein M
1
represents Li, Mg Z
1
, CuZ
1
, or CuLiZ
1
, wherein Z
1
represents a halogen atom or a 2,6-dimethyloctyl group, to a coupling reaction with an electrophilic alkyl reagent (2): wherein X
