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

Aryl chlorides are among the most versatile synthetic precursors, and yet inexpensive and benign chlorination techniques to produce them are underdeveloped. We propose a process to generate aryl chlorides by chloro-group transfer from chlorophenol pollutants to arenes during their mineralization, catalyzed by Cu(NO3)2/NaNO3 under aerobic conditions. A wide range of arene substrates have been chlorinated using this process. Mechanistic studies show that the Cu catalyst acts in cooperation with NOx species generated from the decomposition of NaNO3 to regulate the formation of chlorine radicals that mediate the chlorination of arenes together with the mineralization of chlorophenol. The selective formation of aryl chlorides with the concomitant degradation of toxic chlorophenol pollutants represents a new approach in environmental pollutant detoxication. A reduction in the use of traditional chlorination reagents provides another (indirect) benefit of this procedure.
