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

Thioketals are an important class of molecules used for the preparation and protection of carbonyl compounds in chemical synthesis. Selective cleavage of thioketals requires the use of harsh conditions and reagents that limit the use of thioketals in chemoenzymatic synthesis. Herein, we describe a biocatalytic strategy for the cleavage of thioketals using enzymatic bromide recycling by vanadium-dependent haloperoxidase (VHPO) enzymes. This reaction design involves halogenation-mediated thioketal cleavage through repetitive enzyme-mediated formation of hypobromous acid with a catalytic quantity of bromide salt and hydrogen peroxide as the terminal oxidant. This protocol is demonstrated on a broad range of 1,3-dithiolanes in high yield and excellent chemoselectivity, performed on a gram scale, run with lysate and whole cells, and applied to the cleavage of 1,3-dithianes and 1,3-oxathiolanes.
