A general and practical protocol for elusive carbo‐difluoroalkylation/ monofluoroalkylation of unactivated alkenes based on the distal functional group migration is described. A portfolio of functional groups including heteroaryl, imino, formyl, and alkynyl groups showcase the migratory aptitude. In combination with visible‐light photocatalysis, a broad range of di‐ and mono‐fluorinated alkyl ketones are readily obtained in synthetically useful yields under mild reaction conditions.
