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 (hetero)aryl sulfoximines are important structures for developing bioactive molecules, whose synthesis relies on oxidation of (hetero)aryl sulfilimines. However, asymmetric approaches for assembling (hetero)aryl sulfilimines are still rare. Here we show that combination of CuI and NOBIN-derived amide ligands offers an effective catalytic system for enantioselective coupling of (hetero)aryl iodides with sulfenamides. A large number of functional groups and heterocycles are tolerated under the coupling conditions, providing a powerful approach for diverse synthesis of enantioenriched (hetero)aryl sulfilimines. The efficiency of the coupling reaction is highly dependent on the electronic nature of (hetero)aryl iodides and sulfenamides. Both (hetero)aryl- and some bulky alkyl-substituted sulfenamides give excellent enantioselectivities, while sulfenamides with smaller alkyl substituents lead to the formation of the (hetero)aryl sulfilimines with moderate enantioselectivities. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations reveal that proper steric repulsions in the transition states of the intramolecular S
