Sulfur‐containing compounds (SCCs) exist widely in, for example, natural sources, pharmaceuticals, materials, and foods. Their multifarious functions have stimulated scientists to construct them in greener and more efficient ways and further exploit their properties. Different photosensitizers with sulfur atoms have been developed and exploited. Furthermore, SCCs display excellent ability in hydrogen‐atom‐transfer reactions. In addition to acting as catalysts, SCCs can also be efficiently transformed under visible‐light‐promoted conditions. Bond dissociation and oxygenation reactions that involve sulfur centers are emphasized here.
