Abstract
Monoesters of tetrathiafulvalene-2,6(7)-dicarboxylic acid were synthesized. Decarboxylation of these esters with subsequent hydrolysis gave tetrathiafulvalenecarboxylic acid. Pure mono- and diesters of tetrathiafulvalenedicarboxylic acids were isolated but their assignment to the 2,6- and 2,7-series requires further study.
