The Krebs cycle starts with Acetyl CoA (produced from pyruvate from glycolysis) combining with oxaloacetate (from the end of the previous Krebs cycle) to form citrate. So citrate is the first molecule formed during the Krebs cycle.

carbon dioxide, and then ATP, and then you got your proton carriers NADH and FADH(2).

total production in kreb cycle(per glucose):

2 Carbon Dioxides
2 ATPs
6 NADH
2 FADH(2)
