Trienone 7 was available in reasonable overall yield from enone 8 via siloxycyclopropane derivatives 9 and 10. SnCl4 promoted intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction of 7 afforded trans-6b as major component which was stereoselectively converted by standard procedures into intermediate 5 bearing six stereogenic centres as required for the dihydromevinolin core.
