It's a trap! Both epoxides and aziridines substituted by an aryl ketone can be reduced efficiently using visible-light photoredox catalysts. The radicals generated were trapped by allyl sulfones, and formed α-branched β-hydroxy or amino derivatives with high diastereocontrol (see scheme; dtbbpy=4,4′-di-tert-butyl-2,2′-bipyridine, ppy=2-phenylpyridine).
