alkyl–aryl coupling reaction between sulfones and arylboron compounds has remained a challenge. We report the first iron-catalyzed radical difluoroalkylation of arylborates with N-heteroaryl sulfones. The coordination between the iron catalyst and the nitrogen atom of N-heteroaryl sulfones was identified to be important in overcoming the reductionpotentiallimitation of sulfones in the intermolecular single-electron-transfer
