Question
Propose a suitable synthesis
This image illustrates a chemical reaction involving the transformation of cyclohexene into cyclohexanone. 

On the left, the structure of cyclohexene is depicted as a six-membered carbon ring with one double bond. 

An arrow pointing to the right indicates a chemical reaction or transformation.

On the right, the structure of cyclohexanone is shown. It is also a six-membered carbon ring, but it features a ketone functional group (C=O) attached to one of the carbon atoms, indicating the presence of an oxygen atom double-bonded to the carbon atom in the ring. Additionally, a hydrogen atom (H) is bonded to the oxygen, completing the conversion to cyclohexanone.

This reaction is likely an oxidation process where cyclohexene is oxidized to form cyclohexanone.

Step 1

-> Alkene has nucleophilic character hence it can give electrophilic addition reaction. In presence of Acid first of all carbocation formed and reaction proceeds through most stable carbocation.

-> Alkyl halide form Grignard reagent and can give nucleophilic addition reaction to carbonyl center.

-> PCC can oxidize alcohol to carbonyl compound.
