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

Enantioselective dehydrogenation of prochiral C-H bonds could provide a powerful method for constructing chiral centers attached to synthetically versatile vinyl groups. Herein, we describe the realization of enantioselective β,γ-dehydrogenation of cycloalkyl amides enabled by chiral oxazoline-pyridone ligands to afford a wide range of highly elaborated carbocycles with exceptional enantioselectivity (>99% ee). Notably, the resulting chiral β,γ-unsaturated carbocycles are difficult to access via inverse electron demand Diels-Alder reaction. Through ligand control, tandem dehydrogenation and C-H olefination sequence also led to the formation of chiral β-alkylidene-γ-lactam. Remarkably, this catalyst is also compatible with complex biologically significant natural products, including diterpenes and pentacyclic triterpenes, where each enantiomer of our chiral ligand enables site-selective modification at four distinct sites within the E ring.
