A composition comprising:
- a) a compound of the formula:
- wherein:
- 1) each R1, R2, R3, and R4 is independently a group of the formula:
- —(L)n—Z
- wherein:
- i) n is an integer from 0 to 12;
- ii) each L is independently selected from a member of the group D, E, or J wherein:
- D is of the formula:
- E is of the formula:
- J is of the formula:
- wherein:
- A) each X and Y is independently a group of the formula:
- —(L)m—Z;
- and
- B) m is an integer from 0 to 8;
- and
- C) no more than two E groups are adjacent to each other and no J groups are adjacent to each other;
- iii) each Z is independently selected from:
- A) hydrogen, halo, cyano, nitro, nitroso, azido, chlorate, bromate, iodate, isocyanato, isocyanido, isothiocyanato, pentafluorothio, or
- B) a group G, wherein G is an unsubstituted or substituted;
- unsaturated, partially saturated, or saturated;
- monocyclic, bicyclic, tricyclic, or fused;
- carbocyclic or heterocyclic ring system wherein;
- 1) when the ring system contains a 3 or 4 membered heterocyclic ring, the heterocyclic ring contains 1 heteroatom;
- 2) when the ring system contains a 5, or more, membered heterocyclic ring or a polycyclic heterocyclic ring, the heterocyclic or polycyclic heterocyclic ring contains from 1 to 4 heteroatoms;
- 3) each heteroatom is independently selected from N, O, and S;
- 4) the number of substituents is from 0 to 5 and each substituent is independently selected from X;
- 2) the total number of non-hydrogen atoms in each compound is 50 or less;
- and
- its enantiomers, stereoisomers, salts, and mixtures thereof;
- and
- b) a packaging material.
