A photoredox-catalyzed cascade annulation of methyl(2-(phenylethynyl)phenyl)sulfanes and methyl(2-(phenylethynyl)phenyl)selanes with sulfonyl chlorides was developed. A variety of benzothiophenes and benzoselenophenes were obtained in moderate to good yields at ambient temperature. Click to show full abstract
