| Abstract: | Heteroaromatic sulfoxides are a frequent structural motif in natural products, drugs, catalysts, and materials. We report a metal‐free visible‐light‐accelerated synthesis of heteroaromatic sulfoxides from sulfinamides and peroxodisulfate. The reaction proceeds at room temperature with blue‐light irradiation and allows the C−H sulfinylation of electron‐rich heteroarenes, such as pyrroles and indoles. An electrophilic aromatic substitution mechanism is proposed based on the substrate scope, substitution selectivity, and competition experiments with different nucleophiles. |
