Abstract
Conductivity and permittivity of the quasi-one-dimensional conductor (TMTTF) 2SbF 6 have been measured at low frequencies ( $f = 10^{2} \sim 10^{7}$  Hz) under several pressures ( $P= 0 \sim 0.5$GPa). The real part of the conductivity has a maximum at  $T_{\rm m}$ due to charge localization of Mott-Hubbard type. Below  $T_{\rm m}$, the real part of the permittivity ( $\varepsilon $ $\prime )$ shows a sharp peak with the magnitude in the order of  $10^{5} \sim10^{6}$. It has been suggested that the anomaly of  $\varepsilon $ $\prime $ is due to a charge ordering (CO) phase transition. We found that the CO transition temperature decreases with pressure. Above 0.25GPa, the temperature dependence of  $\varepsilon $ $\prime $ is strongly dependent on frequency in the frequency range of measurements. We will discuss the pressure effect on the CO phase transition in (TMTTF) 2X family. Key words. organic compounds - charge ordering - permittivity.
