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 identification of spiro N-heterocycles as scaffolds that display structural novelty, three-dimensionality, beneficial physicochemical properties, and enable the controlled spatial disposition of substituents has led to a surge of interest in utilizing these compounds in drug discovery programs. Herein, we report the strain-release-driven Friedel-Crafts spirocyclization of azabicyclo[1.1.0]butane-tethered (hetero)aryls for the synthesis of a unique library of azetidine spiro-tetralins. The reaction was discovered to proceed through an unexpected interrupted Friedel-Crafts mechanism, generating a highly complex azabicyclo[2.1.1]hexane scaffold. This dearomatized intermediate, formed exclusively as a single diastereomer, can be subsequently converted to the Friedel-Crafts product upon electrophilic activation of the tertiary amine, or trapped as a Diels-Alder adduct in one-pot. The rapid assembly of molecular complexity demonstrated in these reactions highlights the potential of the strain-release-driven spirocyclization strategy to be utilized in the synthesis of medicinally relevant scaffolds.
