Fluoroalkyl sulfones can be used as a new class of radical fluoroalkylation reagents in combination with visible‐light photoredox catalysis. In their Communication on page 2743 ff., C. Ni, J. Hu, and co‐workers show how various fluorinated radicals (the apples) can be generated from a range of fluoroalkyl sulfones when subjected to the electrons (the arrows) supplied by a photocatalyst (the prince).
