The holy grail of electrochemistry , a convergent paired electrolysis, is a step closer in the metal‐free electrochemical allylation of aromatic aldehydes in DMF. A three‐component coupling product is obtained in a one‐pot procedure when anodically generated electrophiles and cathodically generated nucleophiles react in solution to give a single product.
