Reaction of a 5,8-dihydronaphthalene of formula III or formula IV with m-chloroperbenzoic acid yields a 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-6,7-epoxynaphthalene having the structure ##STR6## The reaction can be carried out by mixing m-chloroperbenzoic acid with a solution of a 5,8-dihydronaphthalene in an organic solvent, e.g., ethyl acetate. The resulting mixture is added to a mixture of ethyl ether and aqueous sodium bicarbonate, and mixed to form a 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-6,7-epoxynaphthalene of formula V.
