The first reaction involves a compound that, when reacted with sulfuric acid, yields 2,8-dimethylspiro[4.5]decan-6-one, while the second reaction involves a compound that, when treated with BuLi and protonated, forms 4-methyl-1-phenylpent-3-en-1-ol. The correct answer identifies the starting materials as A = 2,7-dimethyloctahydronaphthalene-4a,8a-diol and B = (((3-methylbut-2-en-1-yl)oxy)methyl)benzene."}
