Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • PSP is ring-closed under acidic conditions, while under neutral and alkaline conditions, it loses protons and opens the ring.

    “In particular, PSP is ring-closed under acidic conditions, while under neutral and alkaline conditions, it will lose protons and open the ring [35].”

    From Red-light excited efficient metal-free near-infrared room-temperature phosphorescent films (2022) · cites this paper as [35]

    Section 4.1.1 (page unavailable) supports deprotonation and bond rearrangement, and the Scheme 1 caption says a further deprotonation occurs above pH 6. But it describes the oxygen–carbon bond breaking upon solvation, not ring opening specifically at neutral or alkaline pH; it also does not establish that the dye remains ring-closed throughout acidic conditions. (LLM, conf=0.85)

    Experimental — accuracy not yet measured
  • PSP derivatives are highly sensitive pH indicators in water and have different molecular structures in acidic and neutral aqueous solutions.

    “Previous studies revealed that these PSP derivatives are highly sensitive pH indicators in water [35] and have different molecular structures in acidic and neutral aqueous solutions.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
