(b)
Interpretation: A synthesis of given compound from ethanol as the only source of carbon atoms is to be devised.
Concept introduction: The full form of PCC is pyridinium chlorochromate. It acts as mild oxidizing agent. It oxidizes primary alcohols into aldehyde and secondary alcohol into ketones. Butyllithium and soda amide are used as base in organic synthesis reactions.
