Does i need to prepare its std curve in acetone (The dissolving solvent) or in n-hexane in which i am extracting my compound.

You have one major problem here in making calibration standards - the volatility of acetone and n-hexane. Can you use other fluids? Or use a preparation technique that dilutes the extract in a less-volatile (but miscible with acetone or n-hexane) and prepare your calibration standards in a similar manner. You need to have the appropriate part of the spectrum (UV/VIS/IR) free from interfering peaks.
Please look at the following below links which may help you in your analysis:

Thanks
In n-hexane. The best use same batch of n-hex for extraction and calubration.
