A nickel‐catalyzed cross‐coupling between (hetero)arylborons and unactivated 1‐bromo‐1,1‐difluoroalkanes has been developed. The use of two ligands (a bidentate bipyridine‐based ligand, 4,4′‐ditBu‐bpy, and a monodentate pyridine‐based ligand, DMAP) offers a highly efficient nickel‐based catalytic system to prepare difluoroalkylated arenes which have important applications in medicinal chemistry.
