The first steps were the addition of dibromocarbene to 1,3-cyclohexadiene (68%) and the epoxidation of the resulting 7,7-dibromobicyclo[4.1.0]hept-2-ene (79%) (R. M. Coates, L. A. Last, J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1983, 105, 7322-7326). In the third step, 7,7-dibromobicyclo[4.1.0]hept-2-ene anti-oxide was converted into 5 (32%) by treatment with two equivalents of butyllithium.
