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

Given the ubiquity of heterocycles in biologically active molecules, transformations with the capacity to modify such molecular skeletons with modularity remain highly desirable. Ring expansions that enable interconversion of privileged heterocyclic motifs are especially interesting in this regard. As such, the known mechanisms for ring expansion and contraction determine the classes of heterocycle amenable to skeletal editing. Herein, we report a reaction that selectively cleaves the N-N bond of pyrazole and indazole cores to afford pyrimidines and quinazolines, respectively. This chlorodiazirine-mediated reaction provides a unified route to a related pair of heterocycles that are otherwise typically prepared by divergent approaches. Mechanistic experiments and DFT calculations support a pathway involving pyrazolium ylide fragmentation followed by cyclization of the ring-opened diazahexatriene intermediate to yield the new diazine core. Beyond enabling access to valuable heteroarenes from easily prepared starting materials, we demonstrate the synthetic utility of skeletal editing in the synthesis of a Rosuvastatin analog as well as in an aryl vector-adjusting direct scaffold hop.
