This review is focused on the recent advances in the chemistry of sulfur dioxide fixation through a radical process. Diverse sulfonyl compounds can be obtained efficiently under mild conditions. In general, aryl radicals, vinyl radicals, alkyl radicals, and nitrogen-centered radicals can react with...
