Photocatalytic anti-Markovnikov hydro- and haloazidation of alkenes.
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 4 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
Hydroazidation of alkenes provides a direct entry to alkyl azides, which are prevalent structural motifs in medicine development and chemical biology probes. While direct access to anti-Markovnikov hydroazidation products has seen recent progress, these protocols are restricted to highly oxidative hypervalent iodine reagents or superstoichiometric metal salts under photochemical conditions with moderate olefin generality. Thus, the development of a mild, catalytic, redox-neutral hydroazidation with high anti-Markovnikov regioselectivity compatible with diverse classes of alkene remains challenging. Here we report a photocatalytic anti-Markovnikov hydroazidation of alkenes enabled by cooperative ligand-to-metal charge transfer (LMCT) and hydrogen atom transfer (HAT). Critical to this protocol is the use of ligand to achieve efficient visible-light induced homolysis of iron azide species and the cooperation with thiol catalysts to promote this redox-neutral process and address previous challenging substrates. Additionally, the photocatalytic system enables a regioselective haloazidation via a tandem LMCT/ halogen atom transfer (XAT) process with judicious choice of halogenating reagents. Preliminary mechanistic studies support a radical nature of this cooperative system and suggest it to be a powerful manifold in olefin hydro- and di-functionalization.
