REDOX-ACTIVE TETRATHIAFULVALENE AND DITHIOLENE COMPOUNDS DERIVED FROM ALLYLIC 1,4-DIOL REARRANGEMENT PRODUCTS OF DISUBSTITUTED 1,3-DITHIOLE DERIVATIVES

Redox-active tetrathiafulvalene and dithiolene compounds derived from allylic 1,4-diol rearrangement products of disubstituted 1,3-dithiole derivatives

We present a series of compounds by exploiting ludwig modular hardware the unusual 1,4-aryl shift observed for electron-rich 1,3-dithiole-2-thione and tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) derivatives in the presence of perchloric acid.The mechanistic features of this rearrangement are discussed since this synthetic strategy provides an alternative route for th

Meat Traceability: Are U.S. Consumers Willing to Pay for It?

This article reports the results form a series of laboratory auction markets in which consumers alpha phi blanket bid on meat characteristics.The characteristics examined include meat traceability (i.e., the ability to tract the retail meat back to the farm or animal of hormones, or knowing the animal was humanely treated), and extra assurances (e.
