This paper describes a photoredox palladium/iridium‐catalyzed CH arylation with diaryliodonium reagents. Details of the reaction optimization, substrate scope, and mechanism are presented along with a comparison to a related method in which aryldiazonium salts are used in place of diaryliodonium reagents. The unprecedentedly mild reaction conditions (25 °C in methanol), the requirement for light and a photocatalyst, the inhibitory effect of radical scavengers, and the observed chemoselectivity trends are all consistent with a radical‐mediated mechanism for this transformation. This stands in contrast to the analogous thermal reaction with diaryliodonium reagents that is believed to proceed via an ‘ionic’ 2 e − pathway and requires a much higher reaction temperature (100 °C).
