Photoenzymatic enantioselective synthesis of fluorinated amides with remote stereocenter.
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
Fluorinated compounds are scarce in nature, albeit they are in high demand in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and materials. Fluorinated amides serve as prevalent structural motifs in pharmaceuticals and bioactive molecules. However, enantioselective synthesis of fluorinated amides remains challenging. Herein, we develop a visible-light-driven ene-reductase system that effectively generates carbon-centered radicals from fluorine-containing brominated amides. The system further enables their enantioselective hydroalkylation with alkenes, achieving high stereocontrol. Diversified α-fluorinated amides with high yield (up to 91%) and distal chirality (γ-to F, up to 97% enantiomeric excess) are produced by optimizing the reaction system and performing enzyme engineering. This work advances photoenzymatic strategies for the integration of fluorinated chemical inputs and creates an opportunity for the asymmetric synthesis of valuable fluorinated compounds.
