Insights into the C-Cl Bond Breaking in Epichlorohydrin Induced by Low Energy (<10 eV) Electrons.
Article in Molecules (Basel, Switzerland), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Epichlorohydrin is used as an intermediate for the synthesis of polymers and, more particularly, epoxy adhesives. The traditional process involves the cleavage of the carbon-chlorine bond in an alkaline solution. Here, we investigate the breakage of this bond induced by low-energy (<10 eV) electrons. We show the production of the chlorine anion via a resonant process at different energies. The experimental observations are completed by quantum chemistry calculations of the involved molecular orbitals in the formation of the precursor temporary anions, and their decay mechanisms are discussed in terms of the complex potential energy curve crossing network. The gained information may potentially contribute to a strategy of synthesis by other means where low-energy electrons are implicated, i.e., cold plasmas or even scanning tunnelling microscope for which the bond breakage can be controlled by the energy of the colliding electrons.
