The mosjt appropriate sequence of reactions for carrying out the following conversion 
is
is(a)(i) Peracid; (ii) $\mathrm{H}^{+}$; (iii) Zn/dil. HCl
(b)(i) Alkaline $\mathrm{KMnO}_{4}$; (ii) $\mathrm{NaIO}_{4}$; (iii) $\mathrm{N}_{2} \mathrm{H}_{4} / \mathrm{KOH}$
(c)(i) Alkaline $\mathrm{KMnO}_{4}$; (ii) $\mathrm{H}^{+}$; (iii) $\mathrm{Zn} /$ dil. HCl
(d)(i) $\mathrm{O_3}$/$\mathrm{Me_2S}$; (ii) NaOEt; (iii) $\mathrm{N_2H_4}$/KOH
Answer
Answer: D ✓ checked by 4AB · confidence high
Explanation
Ozonolysis of Δ⁹,¹⁰-octalin gives cyclodecane-1,6-dione. Intramolecular aldol condensation with NaOEt gives the bicyclo[5.3.0] enone, and Wolff–Kishner (N₂H₄/KOH) removes the C=O (d).
