Visible-Light-Induced C–S Bond Cleavage Enables Alkyl Radical Generation from Redox-Inert Substrates
act as photoactive intermediates, facilitating efficient radical generation upon visible-light excitation. This work establishes sulfur-mediated photoactivation as a versatile approach to alkyl radical chemistry from readily available redox-inert substrates.
