Explanation / Answer

I am going to give some idea how to get started.

For the transformation of A to B it is simple ester hydrolysis reaction. Here ester is cyclic ester or called as lactones.

Basically, cyclic esters could be hydrolysed in presense of water either in acidic or baasic condition. In acidic condition, there is a chance for reverse reaction,and excess amout of water is needed that decreases the yield.

That's basic condition hydrolysis is the best choice.

So here for the transformation of A to B you need to take Aq NaOH solution.
