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

Arene- and heteroarene-fused rings are pervasive in biologically active molecules. Direct annulation between a C─H bond on the aromatic core and a tethered alkyl moiety provides a straightforward approach to access these scaffolds; however, such a strategy is often hampered by the need of special reactive groups and/or less compatible cyclization conditions. It would be synthetically appealing if a common native functional group can be used as a handle to enable a general C─H annulation with diverse aromatic rings. Here, we show a deacylative annulation strategy for preparing a large variety of aromatic-fused rings from linear simple ketone precursors. The reaction starts with homolytic cleavage of the ketone α C─C bond via a pre-aromatic intermediate, followed by a radical-mediated dehydrogenative cyclization. Using widely available ketones as the robust radical precursors, this deconstructive approach allows streamlined assembly of complex polycyclic structures with broad functional group tolerance.
