Talk:Orthocarbonic acid

Untitled
this acid would be pretty crazy if anyone could make it. Would high pressure induce its formation? maybe then it could exist in the sea depths.

you don't need a citation for where it says 'citation needed.' any chemist sees this as a painfully obvious statement.

Removal of alternate name "Hitler's acid"
I did some digging, and Google doesn't return any results for "Hitler's acid" acid until 2016. The first usage was on a Russian education/pop sci website in a listicle about space factoids, referencing a then-recent computational chem paper (DOI: 10.1038/srep32486) that claimed orthocarbonic acid could possibly form deep in Uranus or Neptune. I can post the link to the listicle but I'm not sure if it'll get flagged as spam since it's a .ru domain and I don't have a Wikipedia account. There is no publication date or author on the website, but Google has it dated Jan. 20, 2016.

Scifinder didn't return any results for "Hitler's acid" when I searched, but it did return 143 results for "orthocarbonic acid." It looks like the name just spontaneously emerged one day and gets circulated periodically as a pop science factoid. I'm removing the alternate name because nobody has ever seriously used it. The German Wikipedia page for this molecule has removed the ball-and-stick model render as well. 172.126.55.24 (talk) 21:10, 22 July 2023 (UTC)

Reference error
I wanted to add a reference for an experimental synthesis of calcium orthocarbonate, but the reference contains an error and I cannot resolve it. Please help. Olthe3rd1 (talk) 02:11, 13 October 2023 (UTC)
