The protection of a carbonyl is a standard procedure to mask the reactivity of this group towards nucleophiles and reductants. The present work pointed out the potentialities of arylazo sulfones as non-ionic PhotoAcid Generators (PAGs) to promote the efficient conversion of aldehydes and ketones into acetals, ketals and 1,3-oxazolidines upon visible-light irradiation. Such approach takes advantages from the mild conditions employed and exhibits an easy scalability and a broad scope (80 examples included).
