Here, we describe an iron-catalyzed benzylic C-H thiolation of alkylarenes photoinduced ligand-to-metal charge-transfer. The protocol features operational simplicity, mild reaction conditions, and the use of FeCl as catalyst and thiols/disulfides as sulfur sources, which enables the transformation of diverse benzylic C-H bonds into C-S bonds with a high efficiency.
