Enantioselective synthesis of α,α-diarylketones by sequential visible light photoactivation and phosphoric acid catalysis.
Article in Science advances, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Chiral ketones and their derivatives are useful synthetic intermediates for the synthesis of biologically active natural products and medicinally relevant molecules. Nevertheless, general and broadly applicable methods for enantioenriched acyclic α,α-disubstituted ketones, especially α,α-diarylketones, remain largely underdeveloped, owing to the easy racemization. Here, we report a visible light photoactivation and phosphoric acid-catalyzed alkyne-carbonyl metathesis/transfer hydrogenation one-pot reaction using arylalkyne, benzoquinone, and Hantzsch ester for the expeditious synthesis of α,α-diarylketones with excellent yields and enantioselectivities. In the reaction, three chemical bonds, including C═O, C─C, and C─H, are formed, providing a de novo synthesis reaction for chiral α,α-diarylketones. Moreover, this protocol provides a convenient and practical method to synthesize or modify complex bioactive molecules, including efficient routes to florylpicoxamid and BRL-15572 analogs. Computational mechanistic studies revealed that C-H/π interactions, π-π interaction, and the substituents of Hantzsch ester all play crucial roles in the stereocontrol of the reaction.
