A novel visible-light-catalyzed sulfonylation/arylation of carbon-carbon σ-bond with sulfonyl chlorides for the synthesis of 3-sulfonylated 1,2-dihydronaphthalenes is developed. This difunctionalization proceeds via a sequence of C═C bond sulfonylation, C-C σ-bond cleavage, and intramolecular cyclization, and the experiment result shows that the C-C σ-bond difunctionalization reaction includes a radical process. This strategy provides a simple and convenient route for difunctionalization of C-C bonds with an aromatic carbon and a sulfonyl radical by one-pot construction of a C-S bond and a new C-C bond.
