The Attempt at a Solution
I need to fill in the aragraph. My issue is mostly about how to add carbons in such a way that I can get the OH on that one carbon.. I thought about turning the alkyne into an alkynyl anion and then adding a ketone but that doesn't get the O in the right place. Any advice?
