The mildest touch: The challenge of converting carbon dioxide, a renewable carbon feedstock, into value‐added organic products remains highly inspiring for organic chemists. Although extremely challenging, now the carboxylation of aryl and vinyl chlorides has been realized under ambient conditions with a simple and accessible Ni II complex. This attractive protocol demonstrates the unique potential of transition metal chemistry in CO 2 fixation catalysis.
