Photo-induced ring-maintaining hydrosilylation of unactivated alkenes with hydrosilacyclobutanes.
Article in Nature communications, 2025. 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
Increasing attention has been paid to silacyclobutanes because of their wide application in ring opening and ring extension reactions. However, the synthesis of functionalized silacyclobutanes remains an unmet challenge because of the limited functional group tolerance of the reactions with organometallic reagents and chlorosilacyclobutanes. Herein, we report a conceptually different solution to this end through a visible-light-induced metal-free hydrosilylation of unactivated alkenes with hydrosilacyclobutanes. A wide range of unactivated alkenes with diverse functional groups including the base-sensitive acid, alcohol and ketones participated in this reaction smoothly. In particular, the first hydrosilylation reaction of alkenes with dihydrosilacyclobutane provides a facile access to various functionalized alkyl monohydrosilacyclobutanes. Unsymmetrical dialkyl silacyclobutanes have also been synthesized through consecutive hydrosilylation with dihydrosilacyclobutane in one pot. The mechanism study reveals that the Lewis basic solvent could promote the generation of strained silyl radicals by direct light irradiation without a redox-active photocatalyst and the thiol catalyst plays an important role in accelerating the reaction.
