Alternatively for a full octet on every atom, oxiryne, which does not exist and does not have a wiki page. It’s basically acetylene with its arms chopped off and the stumps dislocated, bent back, and stapled together with an oxygen atom.

Please describe all chemistry to me as body horror.

You could also do something like en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethylene_oxide but remove the hydrogens and then have the carbons do a triple bond to make pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/…/Epoxy-acetylene
Considering ethylene oxide is already so unstable as fuck though due to its strained structure that it’s used as the main component in thermobaric weapons and this would be even more strained, I don’t know if that would be an improvement.

From the third sentence is the wiki page:
So yeah, not at all stable.

Well, it seems Wikipedia was wrong at least about the second half of that sentence

To be fair, most people won’t buy this specific drink.

I was about to say, you got way too many things that absolutely will bond with that with no hesitation. Thats a very unstable molecule.

I would thing the plastic lining in that container would probably be high on the bonding list, but I haven’t taken a chemistry class in 24 years.

But wait, from further down:
We now have a lower and upper bound for its reactivity at least:
able to observe reactions with NO and NO2 ≤ Reactivity < encountered in everyday life
