Light-induced arylation (alkylation) of N-sulfonylhydrazones with boronic acids

We report light-induced arylation (alkylation) for the synthesis of diarylmethanes, bis(diarylmethyl)benzenes, arylalkylmethanes, and triarylmethanes from readily accessible N -sulfonylhydrazones and aryl/alkylboronic acids with the aid of Cs 2 CO 3 .
