$A$ carbonyl compound $P$,which gives a positive iodoform test,undergoes reaction with $MeMgBr$ followed by dehydration to give an olefin $Q$. Ozonolysis of $Q$ leads to a dicarbonyl compound $R$,which undergoes intramolecular aldol reaction to give predominantly $S$.
$P$ $\xrightarrow[\substack{2. H^{+}, H_2 O \\ 3. H_2 SO_4, \Delta}]{1. MeMgBr} Q$ $\xrightarrow[2. Zn, H_2 O]{1. O_3} R$ $\xrightarrow[2. \Delta]{1. OH^{-}} S$

$2.$ The structures of the products $Q$ and $R$,respectively,are
$3.$ The structure of the product $S$ is
