Chemical compound
Cyclobutanetetrone, also called tetraoxocyclobutane, is an organic compound[1] with formula C4O4 or (CO)4, the fourfold ketone of cyclobutane. It would be an oxide of carbon, indeed a tetramer of carbon monoxide.
The compound seems to be thermodynamically unstable.[2] As of 2000, it had yet to be synthesized in significant amounts[3][4] but may have transient existence as detected by mass spectrometry.[5]
Related compounds
Cyclobutanetetrone can be viewed as the neutral counterpart of the squarate anion C
4O2−
4, which is stable and has been known at least since 1959.[6]
The compound octahydroxycyclobutane or cyclobutaneoctaol (C(OH)2)4 may be referred to in the literature as "hydrated tetraoxocyclobutane".[7]
