An alkene A on ozonolysis yields acetone...

An alkene A on ozonolysis yields acetone and an aldehyde. The aldehyde is easily oxidised to an acid B. When B is treated with bromine in presence of yields a compound C which on hydrolysis gives a hydroxyle acid D. This acid can also be obatined from acetone by the reaction with hydrogen cyanide followed by hydrolysis. Identify the compounds A, B C and D.
