Dehydrogenative C−H/N−H cross‐coupling serves as one of the most straightforward and atom‐economical approaches for C−N bond formation. In this work, an electrochemical reaction protocol has been developed for the oxidative C−H amination of unprotected phenols under undivided electrolytic conditions...
