(A) The reaction sequence is as follows:
$1$. Cyclohexanol is oxidized by $CrO_3$ in $H_2SO_4$ (Jones reagent) to form Cyclohexanone $(A)$.
$2$. Cyclohexanone reacts with $CH_3MgI$ followed by acid hydrolysis to form $1-$methylcyclohexanol $(B)$.
$3$. $1-$methylcyclohexanol undergoes acid-catalyzed dehydration with $H_2SO_4$ and heat to form $1-$methylcyclohexene $(C)$.
$4$. $1-$methylcyclohexene undergoes hydroboration-oxidation with $(BH_3)_2$ followed by $H_2O_2/NaOH$ to form $2-$methylcyclohexanol $(D)$.
