Tetrahedrane is a hypothetical hydrocarbon that belongs to the family of polyhedral hydrocarbons. It is characterized by its unique structure, which is based on a tetrahedral arrangement of carbon atoms. Specifically, tetrahedrane would have four carbon atoms at the vertices of a tetrahedron, with each carbon atom bonded to two hydrogen atoms. This structure implies that tetrahedrane would have the formula C₄H₈.
