An organic compound 'A' having molecular formula `C_(6)H_(6)O` gives a characteristic colour with aqueous `FeCl_(3)` solution. When 'A' is treated with `CO_(2)` and NaOH at 400K under pressure. 'B' is obtained. B on acidification gives C when C treated with `CH_(3)COCl` gives a popular pain killer D. Deduce the strucutrues of A,B,C and D.
