'''Orthocarbonic acid''' or '''methanetetraol''' is the name given to a hypothetical compound with the ] H<sub>4</sub>CO<sub>4</sub> or C(OH)<sub>4</sub>. Its molecular structure consists of a single ] bonded to four ] groups. It would be therefore a fourfold ]. In theory it could lose four ] to give the hypothetical ] CO<sub>4</sub><sup>4−</sup> ('''orthocarbonate'''), and is therefore considered an ] of carbon. '''Orthocarbonic acid''', '''carbon hydroxide''', '''methanetetrol''' is the name given to a ] with the ] {{chem2|H4CO4}} or {{chem2|C(OH)4}}.

Orthocarbonic acid is one of the group of ] '']s'' that have the general structure of RC(OH)<sub>3</sub>.The term ''ortho acid'' is also used to refer to the most hydroxylated acid in a set of ]s.


==Orthocarbonate anions== ==Orthocarbonate anions==
By loss of one through 4 protons, orthocarbonic acid could yield four anions: H<sub>3</sub>CO<sub>4</sub><sup>−</sup>, H<sub>2</sub>CO<sub>4</sub><sup>2−</sup>, HCO<sub>4</sub><sup>3−</sup>, and CO<sub>4</sub><sup>4−</sup>. By loss of one through four protons, orthocarbonic acid could yield four anions: {{chem2|H3CO4-}} (trihydrogen orthocarbonate), {{chem2|H2CO4(2-)}} (dihydrogen orthocarbonate), {{chem2|HCO4(3-)}} (hydrogen orthocarbonate), and {{chem2|CO4(4-)}} (orthocarbonate).
