Homolytic substitution at the sulfur atom of (phenylsulfanyl)vinyl radicals, obtained by radical reaction of benzenethiol with easily accessible alkyl 4-pentynyl sulfides, is a mild, tin-free route for the generation of all types of alkyl radicals. This protocol can be employed for reductive defunctionalizations as well as for cyclizations onto both electron-rich and electron-poor C-C double bonds
