Visible-Light-Promoted (Phenylsulfonyl)methylation of Electron-Rich Heteroarenes and N-Arylacrylamides

Visible-light-promoted radical (phenylsulfonyl)methylation reactions of electron-rich heteroarenes and N-arylacrylamides have been developed starting from bromomethyl phenyl sulfone derivatives. This method provides a mild and efficient access to various (phenylsulfonyl)methylated compounds.
