In chemistry 14-benzoquinonetetracarboxylic acid is an organic compound with formula C10H4O10 or (C6O2)(-(CO)OH)4 which can be viewed as deriving from para-benzoquinone C6H4O2 through replacement of the four hydrogen atoms by carboxyl functional groups -(CO)OH. By removal of four protons the acid is expected to yield the anion C10O4−10 benzoquinonetetracarboxylate which is one of the oxocarbon anions (consisting solely of oxygen and carbon.
