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

Amide functional group is useful in all branches of molecule-based science. Hundreds of amide synthetic protocols have been invented over the history of organic chemistry either through developing new coupling reagents or engineering non-traditional coupling partners. However, the click-type amide ligation that operates under biocompatible conditions with high chemoselectivity and rapid kinetics is rare. Herein we report that native amines react with α-halo acylsilanes to afford amides selectively with rapid kinetics. Enabled by a tandem silyl-migration/desilylation process, this amide ligation tolerates a wide range of unprotected polar functional groups and proceeds even at diluted concentrations. Beyond the synthesis of simple amides and peptides in both solution and solid phase, it is also applicable to selective functionalization of complex natural products, protein bioconjugation and synthesis of non-conventional functional polyamides under mild conditions.
