Look—no transition metal! Transition‐metal‐free systems for the direct cross‐coupling reactions of nitrogen heteroaromatics and alkanes are described. Under the influence of t BuOO t Bu, pyridine N ‐oxide derivatives react with alkanes to furnish the corresponding cross‐coupling products (alkylated nitrogen heterocycles) in good yields.
