Using the carbon-containing starting material(s), propose a synthesis for both of the following retrosynthesis schemes. Provide structures for all intermediates. The carbon atoms in the product must originate from the starting material(s), but you may use as many equivalents of each starting material as you would like, and any reagent/reaction you know. (Note: no mechanisms are required). (A) Racemic
