Provide complete synthetic routes for each of the following transformations. You may use any organic compounds with 6 or fewer carbons, as well as any inorganic reagent. Remember that Friedel-Crafts olkylations are typically a very poor synthetic choice, so refrain from using them in these syntheses. Organometallic reagents will play a key role in each of your syntheses. All carbons in the starting materials must end up in the product. Provide a second route for the synthesis above. Note that the carbon-carbon bond formation must employ an electrophile distinct from the one you utilized in part c!
