I am trying to remove a stain from a linen jacket which was caused when a mosquito spray product (alcohol based Deet) leaked onto it during a flight. The jacket says "dry clean only" but I wondered if there is any advice on making some preparatory attempts without ruining the jacket.

You can wash Linen in cold water, but DO NOT put it in the dryer...If you have a hard time getting the wrinkles out after it has air dried, take it to the cleaners and have them steam press it only.
I have washed linen many times, with great results.
I added a website for you, it says to iron linen while it is still damp, but if you have lining in your I would not do this

Oxiclean- soak it in one day- Scrub undesirable elements quickly with Oxilclean with a toothbrush. (Tide also works). I soaked a coat for an total weekend in a good bathtub of tide and it got here out searching sparkling.

I wouldn't. Just tell the cleaners what it is. They will know what to do.
