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

Novel organic synthesis platforms inspired by enzyme-promoted biochemical transformations often demonstrate unexpected efficacy in solving challenging problems in organic synthesis. Drawing inspiration from the acyl transfer process catalyzed by coenzyme A (CoA) and acetyl-CoA in living organisms, we have developed a biomimetic acyl transfer strategy catalyzed by organic sulfur compounds. By activating the inert C-F bonds of trifluoromethyl aromatics, a multi-component radical relay strategy enables the efficient construction of fluorine-modified γ-aryl carboxylic acid derivatives. Sulfur compounds serve dual roles in the catalytic cycle, acting as electron-donor catalysts to activate inert C-F bonds and forming thioester intermediates to transfer acyl groups to nucleophiles. Building upon this platform, we have for the first time extended the scope of fluoroalkyl carbon radical precursors in cascade carbonylation of alkenes from reactive species to unactivated trifluoromethylarenes.
