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

A series of novel conjugated semiconducting polymers based on the unsubstituted thiazolo[5,4-d]thiazole (TzTz) unit is synthesized using atom-economic and environmentally friendly direct (hetero)arylation polymerization (DHAP). The versatility of the proposed polymerization conditions, employing a non-chlorinated and moderately toxic solvent and cooperative palladium/copper bimetallic catalytic system, is demonstrated through the use of seven comonomers with varying electron-withdrawing strength: 2,2'-bithiophene (BT), 6,7-difluoroquinoxaline (Qx), thieno[3,4-c]pyrrole-4,6(5H)-dione (TPD), 5,6-difluorobenzo[c][1,2,5]thiadiazole (BTD), isoindigo (IID), para-azaquinodimethane (AQM) and 2,5-dihydropyrrolo[3,4-c]pyrrole-1,4-dione (DPP). The resulting TzTz-based copolymers exhibit optical bandgaps between 1.5 and 2.0 eV with HOMO/LUMO energy levels spanning from -5.2/-3.3 eV to -5.4/-3.9 eV. They all show satisfactory thermal stability for electronic applications (Td = 300-360 °C). Notably, TzTz-based copolymers are observed they generally exhibit improved backbone planarity and deeper LUMO levels than their thiophene derivatives. A synthesis tool to finely lower the LUMO levels of next-generation A-A' copolymers in view of increasing the performance and air-stability of doped organic electronics is believed to be provided by this work.
