1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

The geometries and thermochemistry of Re2(NO)4(CO) n (n = 4, 3, 2, 1, 0) structures isovalent with the binuclear cobalt carbonyls Co2(CO) n+4 have been examined using density functional theory. Eight low-energy Re2(NO)4(CO)4 structures, all with formal Re-Re single bonds, lie within 6 kcal mol(-1) of the global minimum. These eight structures include unbridged structures as well as structures with two bridging NO groups but no structures with bridging CO groups. Similarly, five low-energy Re2(NO)4(CO)3 structures, all with formal Re=Re double bonds, lie within 6 kcal mol(-1) of the global minimum. Again these five structures include unbridged structures as well as structures with one or two bridging NO groups but no structures with bridging CO groups. The Re2(NO)4(CO) n (n = 4, 3) appear to be fluxional systems similar to the well-known Co2(CO)8 for which doubly bridged and unbridged structures have approximately the same energies. The lowest energy Re2(NO)4(CO)2 structures have formal Re=Re double bonds including a structure with a five-electron donor bridging η(2)-μ-NO group. Isomeric Re2(NO)4(CO)2 structures with formal Re≡Re triple bonds lie approximately ∼10 kcal mol(-1) above the global minimum. For the more highly unsaturated Re2(NO)4(CO) and Re2(NO)4 systems, the lowest energy structures have formal Re≡Re triple bonds of length ∼2.6 Å. Higher energy Re2(NO)4(CO) structures have shorter Re-Re distances of length ∼2.5 Å suggesting formal quadruple bonds. Graphical Abstract The geometries and thermochemistry of Re2(NO)4(CO) n (n = 4, 3, 2, 1, 0) structures isovalent with the binuclear cobalt carbonyls Co2(CO) n+4 have been examined using density functional theory. A number of energetically closely spaced Re2(NO)4(CO)4 and Re2(NO)4(CO)3 structures are found, including unbridged and NO-bridged structures but no CO-bridged structures. The Re2(NO)4(CO) n (n = 2, 1, 0) systems provide examples of Re-Re multiple bonds of orders ranging from 2 to 4.
