We report here the synthesis and properties of the furo and thieno analogues of 4,5-dihydro-4,5-dioxo-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-f]quinoline-2,7,9-tricarboxylic acid (=PQQ), i.e. the furo- and thieno[2,3-f]quinoline-4,5-quinone (FQQ and TQQ, resp.) derivatives B and C, obtained as triesters. The triester of PQQ derivative A is much more stable than the triesters of B or C, and only the triester of A shows strong activity in nonenzymatic catalytic oxidations.
