An efficient method for synthesis of diarylmethanes with arylamines by using a transition‐metal free photo‐induced radical Csp3‐H bond activation strategy has been achieved. This protocol proceeds under mild reaction condition and represents the first metal‐free radical strategy for synthesis of diarylmethanes with arylamines. The control experiments illustrated that the methylene radical involved in this process and play an important role in this reaction
