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

The stereocontrolled allylic alkylation of carbonyl compounds with the goal of producing the full range of stereoisomers presents an effective approach for increasing the productivity of collective natural product synthesis and the creation of chiral molecule libraries for drug exploration. The simultaneous control of regio-, diastereo-, and enantioselectivity poses a significant synthetic challenge in contemporary organic synthesis. Herein, we describe a catalytic stereodivergent α-allylation protocol applicable to both aliphatic and aromatic 2-acylimidazoles, thereby providing a practical blueprint for the divergent synthesis of important chiral building blocks. Each of the six isomeric α-allylated compounds can be readily obtained with remarkable yields and exceptional stereoselectivities, by judiciously selecting the appropriate leaving group and permutations of enantiomers adapted from nickel and iridium catalysts. The versatility of this asymmetric allylic alkylation has been successfully utilized in the enantioselective synthesis of (R)-arundic acid and (S,S)-cinamomumolide, as well as in the stereodivergent total synthesis of tapentadol.
