Compound A has the formula $C_{10} H_{16}$ . On catalytic hydrogenation over palladium, it reacts with only 1 molar equivalent of $H_{2}$ . Compound A also undergoes reaction with ozone, followed by zinc treatment, to yield a symmetrical diketone, $B (C_{10} H_{16} O_{2})$ .

How many rings does A have?

Simmons–Smith reaction of cyclohexene with diiodomethane gives asingle cyclopropane product, but the analogous reaction of cyclohexene with 1,1-diiodoethane gives (in low yield) a mixture of two isomeric methylcyclopropane products. What are the two products, and how do they differ?

Question: In planning the synthesis of one compound from another, it’s just as important to know what not to do as to know what to do. The following reactions all have serious drawbacks to them. Explain the potential problems of each.
