Devise a synthesis of each compound from benzene. You may also use any organic compounds having four carbons or fewer, and any required inorganic reagents.
a.

b.

Although diazomethane ( ) is often not a useful reagent for preparing cyclopropanes,other diazo compounds give good yields of more complex cyclopropanes. Draw a stepwisemechanism for the conversion of diazo compound A to B, an intermediate in the synthesis ofsirenin, the sperm attractant produced by the female gametes of the water mold Allomyces.

In addition to using and base to synthesize dihalocarbenes (Section 26.4), dichlorocarbene can be prepared by heating sodium trichloroacetate. Draw a stepwise mechanism for this reaction.
