Catalyst-controlled functionalization of carboxylic acids by electrooxidation of self-assembled carboxyl monolayers.
Article in Nature communications, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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.
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
While the electrooxidative activation of carboxylic acids is an attractive synthetic methodology, the resulting transformations are generally limited to either homocoupling or further oxidation followed by solvent capture. These reactions require extensive electrolysis at high potentials, which ultimately renders the methodology incompatible with metal catalysts that could possibly provide new and complementary product distributions. This work establishes a proof-of-concept for a rare and synthetically-underutilized strategy for selective electrooxidation of carboxylic acids in the presence of oxidatively-sensitive catalysts that control reaction selectivity. We leverage the formation of self-adsorbed monolayers of carboxylate substrates at the anode to promote selective oxidation of the adsorbed carboxylate over a more easily-oxidized catalyst. Consequently, reactions operate at lower potentials, greater faradaic efficiencies, and improved catalyst compatibility over conventional approaches, which enables reactions to be performed with inexpensive Fe complexes that catalyze selective radical additions to olefins.
