Abstract

A nickel's worth of transferred energy: Traditional organic photochemistry often relies on sensitizers, molecules that efficiently absorb light and then transfer the energy to other compounds to spur reactivity. Welin et al. leveraged this approach to stimulate an organometallic nickel catalyst. They photoexcited an iridium complex with blue light. The ensuing energy transfer to nickel enabled C–O bond formation, coupling aryl halides with carboxylic acids. A similar approach could generate a variety of additional reactivity patterns through photosensitized transition metal catalysis. Science , this issue p. 380

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.
