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

Alkene 1,1-difunctionalization holds significant importance in organic synthesis due to its ability to effectively enhance the complexity and functionality of molecular frameworks. Herein, we report an electrochemical strategy for 1,1-difunctionalization of halogenated aromatics with unactivated alkenes using synergistic Fe/Ni catalysis. This system integrates redox activity of nickel with Lewis acid functionality of iron: the nickel catalyst governs aryl halide oxidative addition and alkene migration, while iron species activates catalytic sites, stabilizes radical acceptors, and precisely regulates electrochemical reduction sequences/selectivities. The reaction system is applicable to a wide range of substrates, including electron-rich and electron-deficient aryl halides, polycyclic compounds, and bioactive natural products (100 examples). Gram-scale synthesis maintains 63% yield, supporting industrial viability. Mechanistic studies elucidate the unique cooperativity of this iron-nickel bimetallic system, providing a theoretical framework for the design of diverse difunctionalization reactions.
