Fill in the blanks for the reaction please do NOT draw the mechanism.

Using the letter codes for the given steps or relevant vocabulary words give the synthesis of the target product. Some reagents may be used more than once, some may not be used. First we must add to form the (functional group) which can then be reacted with to give the (functional group) Then can be added to give the (functional group) , which can be treated first with and aqueous work up then with (CCI4, H20,CH30H) as solvent. Finally we can use to give the final product. If we wanted to instead give 7,8-dibromo-2,2-dimethyl-3-cecanone we would use in the last step.

Explanation / Answer

First we must add AC) PCC to form the (functional group) ketone which can then be treated with H) HSCH2CH2SH,ZnCl2 to give (functional group) dithiane. Then J) CH3CH2CCNa can be added to give the (functional group) alkyne, which can be treated first with M) Na,NH3 and aqueous work up then AE) Raney Ni,H2 with CCl4,H2O,CH3OH E) CH3COOH as solvent. Finally we can use AH) Br2 to give the final product. If we wanted to instead give 7,8-dibromo-2,2-dimethyl-3-decanone we would use AF) HgCl2, H2O, CH3CN, CaCO3 in the last step.
