`H_(3)C- UNDERSET(H)underset(|)OVERSET(OH)overset(|)(C) - underset(H)underset(|)overset(H)overset(|)(C) - underset(H)underset(|)overset(H)overset(|)(C) - CH_(3)`
`H_(3)C- underset(H)underset(|)overset(H)overset(|)(C) - underset(H)underset(|)overset(OH)overset(|)(C) - underset(H)underset(|)overset(H)overset(|)(C) - CH_(3)`
`H_(3)C - underset(CH_(3))underset(|)overset(H)overset(|)(C) - underset(H)underset(|)overset(OH)overset(|)(C) - CH_(3)`
`H_(3)C - underset(CH_(3))underset(|)overset(CH_(3))overset(|)(C) - underset(H)underset(|)overset(H)overset(|)(C) - OH`

Solution :`{:(""H""OH),("|""|"),(H_(3)C-C-C-CH_(3) underset(Delta)overset(H_(2)SO_(4))(rarr)H_(3)C-C=C-CH_(3)),("|""|""|""|"),(""CH_(3)""H""CH_(3)""H),(""darr""[O]),(""CH_(3)),("|"),(""H_(3)C-C=O+CH_(3)COOH):}`
