The NHC-catalyzed thioesterification of aromatic or aliphatic aldehydes with a range of thiols was developed in the presence of a stoichiometric amount of an organic oxidant. Among the oxidants examined, phenazine was shown to give the best results in terms of chemical yield and compatibility with thiols.

A metal‐ and oxidant‐free catalytic method for accessing structurally diverse thioesters from readily accessible, widespread aldehydes, is described. A strategy of a simple organic 9,10‐phenanthrenequinone‐promoted hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) with visible light was successfully implemented to selectively generate acyl radicals without inducing crossover reactivity of thioester products. The preparative
