webscrapping Scielo for references of an articulo with rvest

I want to extract the references from an article on this page:

https://www.scielo.org.mx/scielo.php?script=sci_arttext&pid=S2448-76782022000100004&lang=es

I have tried this:

library(rvest)
library(dplyr)
product_names = simple %>% 
  html_nodes(xpath= '//*[contains(concat( " ", @class, " " ), concat( " ", "references", " " ))]') %>%
  html_text()

but did not work

How can I extract the references?

Solution

Here is a way.
The main complication is the presence of multi-byte characters at the end of each string.

suppressPackageStartupMessages({
  library(rvest)
  library(dplyr)
})

link <- "https://www.scielo.org.mx/scielo.php?script=sci_arttext&pid=S2448-76782022000100004&lang=es"
page <- read_html(link)

page %>%
  html_elements(xpath = '//*[@id="article-back"]') %>%
  html_elements("p") %>%
  html_text() %>%
  gsub("[\n\t]", "", .) %>%
  gsub("\\[|\\]", "", .) %>%
  gsub("Links", "", .) %>%
  iconv(from = 'UTF-8', to = 'ASCII//TRANSLIT') %>%
  trimws() -> refs

refs <- refs[3:70]
