Abstract
In this issue of Chem Catalysis, Molander and co-workers report the visible-light photoactivation of electron donor-acceptor (EDA) complexes formed between thianthrenium and sodium sulfinate derivatives to generate sulfone-containing compounds in moderate to good yields. This approach can be used for late-stage functionalization and enables the retention of halide handles.
