A method for the manufacture of 1,8-octanedioic acid comprises: reacting gamma-valerolactone with an alcohol in the presence of an acid or a base catalyst to provide an alkyl pentenoate, converting the alkyl pentenoate in the presence of a metathesis initiator to provide the dialkyl octenedioate, reacting the dialkyl octenedioate with hydrogen in the presence of a hydrogenation catalyst to provide a dialkyl 1,8-octanedioate and hydrolyzing the dialkyl 1,8-octanedioate to provide the 1,8-octanedioic acid.
