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.
