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

A late-stage, efficient C-H functionalization of medicinally relevant 1,4-benzodiazepines for direct C-H sulfonamidation has been developed via Ru-catalyzed C-H activation. Tosyl azide (TsN3) serves as a bench-stable sulfonamidating reagent. The sulfonamidated product is further converted to an aminated product through chemoselective hydrolysis of the sulfonamide bond. In mechanistic studies, a ruthenacycle (BDZ-Ru-Cl) has been synthesized and characterized by NMR spectroscopy and SC-XRD. Additionally, a novel intermediate, Int-C (a six-membered N-SO2Ar-inserted species), was synthesized from BDZ-Ru-Cl, providing further support for the proposed mechanistic pathway. Density functional theory (DFT) studies were also conducted to gain deeper mechanistic insight and to validate the developed protocol.
