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

High-level quantum electronic structure calculations are used to provide a deep insight into the mechanism and stereocontrolling factors of two recently developed catalytic asymmetric Diels-Alder (DA) reactions of cinnamate esters with cyclopentadiene. The reactions employ two structurally and electronically very different in situ silylated enantiopure Lewis acid organocatalysts: i.e., binaphthyl-allyl-tetrasulfone (BALT) and imidodiphosphorimidate (IDPi). Each of these catalysts activates only specific substrates in an enantioselective fashion. Emphasis is placed on identifying and quantifying the key noncovalent interactions responsible for the selectivity of these transformations, with the final aim of aiding in the development of designing principles for catalysts with a broader scope. Our results shed light into the mechanism through which the catalyst architecture determines the selectivity of these transformations via a delicate balance of dispersion and steric interactions.
