We report the synthesis of three radical-cation salts BEDT-TTF from racemic tris(oxalato)ferrate by electrocrystallization in presence chiral molecules. In enantiopure l-(+)-tartaric acid, we observe spontaneous resolution labile anion to produce salt α-(BEDT-TTF)5[Δ-Fe(C2O4)3].[l-(+)-tartaric acid]2 which contains only Δ enantiomer Fe(C2O4)3.

Two polymorphs of a chiral conductor formulated (BEDT-TTF)3NaCr(C2O4)3·CH3NO2 have been crystallised from solution containing the racemic anion tris(oxalato)chromate(III). In presence (R)-(−)-carvone electrocrystallisation Na3Cr(C2O4)3 with BEDT-TTF and nitromethane yields two products: hexagons crystallising in space group P212121 (I) needles P21 (II). Single crystal electrical transport measurements show semiconducting behavior for both salts.
