i solved it using symmetry

if u use symmetry there is not much to solve as there is only one symmetrical product amongst the given options

symmetry works for me in max no of questions

remember if a path is extremely long and twisted there exists another path connected to the begining u just need to find it

yaar C mein cyclopropane groups ko ulta nahi laga diya tumne manmay? This is Simmons-Smith reaction, iska mechanism fully clarified nahi hai, a carbene or carbenoid is supposed to be involved. It is used to form cyclopropane rings from alkenes.
I mean the triangles will have their base on the carbon chain, and not their vertices on the chain, if you get what I mean.
