An efficient photoinduced strategy for the hydrogenation and arylsulfonylation of alkenes has been developed. The reaction afforded a range of hydrogenated products and sulfonated oxindoles in high yields under external photocatalyst‐free, oxidant‐ and reductant‐free conditions. Mechanistic investigations suggested this transformation is driven by the photochemical activity of hydrogen bond donor‐acceptor complex, generated from the substrates of arylsulfinic acids and C6‐(vinyl sulfone)phenanthridines or N ‐arylacrylamides via hydrogen bond interaction.
