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

In recent years, asymmetric catalytic propargylic substitution reactions have undergone remarkable development, enabling the construction of chiral carbon centers adjacent to intact carbon-carbon triple bonds. For the rational design and further advancement of new asymmetric transformations, a detailed understanding of the origins of enantioselectivity in previously reported reactions, obtained through quantum chemical calculations, is indispensable. In this context, recent density functional theory (DFT) calculations on transition-metal-catalyzed asymmetric propargylic substitution reactions have increasingly revealed that not only conventional steric effects and exchange repulsion but also weak attractive interactions, such as π-π and CH/π interactions, play critical roles in determining stereoselectivity. This review summarizes recent theoretical efforts to clarify the origins of enantioselectivity in transition-metal-catalyzed propargylic substitution reactions.
