diesters, by further esterification followed by hydrogenolysis. Refluxing orthoformate triesters were found to effect quantitative esterification of the pyromellitate system under autocatalytic conditions; minor ester exchange with pre-existing esters (0−5% of total product) was ascribed to reversible anhydride formation. For generalesterification with alcohols, partial ester acid chlorides were obtained
