Visible‐Light‐Induced CS Bond Activation: Facile Access to 1,4‐Diketones from β‐Ketosulfones

Abstract A novel method for the synthesis of 1,4‐diketones from β‐ketosulfones was developed by means of a visible light‐induced CS bond activation process. Symmetrical and unsymmetrical 1,4‐diketones can be easily prepared in moderate to good yields.
