Abstract
The electrochemical demetallation of (η-tetra-t-butoxycyclopentadienone)(ηcyclopentadieny)cobalt, readily available from di-t-butoxyethyne leads to tetra-t-butoxyclopentadienone which can be converted into hydrocroconic acid by trifluoroacetic acid hydrolysis and then croconic acid by oxidation in basic medium.
