Iron-Catalyzed Aerobic Carbonylation of Methane via Ligand-to-Metal Charge Transfer Excitation.
Article in Journal of the American Chemical Society, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
The integration of ligand-to-metal charge transfer (LMCT) catalytic paradigms with radical intermediates has transformed the selective functionalization of inert C-H bonds, facilitating the use of nonprecious metal catalysts in demanding transformations. Notably, aerobic C-H carbonylation of methane to acetic acid remains formidable due to the rapid oxidation of methyl radicals, producing undesired C1 oxygenates. We present an iron terpyridine catalyst utilizing LMCT to achieve exceptional C2/C1 selectivity through synergistic photoexcitation, methyl radical generation, and carbonylation. Mechanistic studies highlight the critical roles of Fe(II) and Fe-carbonyl complexes in bypassing methyl radical oxidation via a radical rebound-like pathway, unlocking unprecedented efficiency in methane aerobic carbonylation.
