An organic compound 'A' having molecular formula `C_6H_6O` gives a characteristic colour with aqeuous `FeCI_3` solution. When 'A' is treated with `CO_2` and NaOH at 400K under pressure 'B' is obtained. The compound B on acidification gives compound C which react with acetyl chloride to form D which is a popular pain killer. Deduce the structure of A, B, C and D.
