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

The study of electrochemical oxidations has wide-ranging implications, from the development of new electrocatalysts for fuel cells for energy conversion, to the synthesis of fine chemicals. 2,2,6,6-Tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl (TEMPO) has been used for decades as a sustainable, metal-free mediator for chemical oxidations and is now being used for electrochemical oxidations. We describe here a novel approach to TEMPO-mediated electrooxidations, in which the chemical input and waste generated during electrooxidations of alcohols are minimized by using a multifunctional room temperature ionic liquid (RTIL) to facilitate flow electrosynthesis. Our three-pronged approach involves the following: (1) the use of a recyclable alkylimidazolium-based RTIL to replace the electrolytes and volatile organic solvents typically used in TEMPO-mediated alcohol electrooxidations; (2) pairing alcohol oxidation at the positive electrode with electroreduction of the cationic component of the RTIL at the negative electrode to generate the base required for the electrosynthesis; (3) incorporation of the catalytic TEMPO moiety in our RTIL-based system. We demonstrate the possibilities offered by our strategy using a range of alcohols, illustrating the scope of reactions that can be driven using our strategy and demonstrating the opportunities offered by task-specific, multifunctional RTILs for electroorganic synthesis.
