Precisely adjusted solvates. influence the oxidation potential of substrates for the electrochemical cross‐coupling of arenes. The solvent mixture based on 1,1,1,3,3,3‐hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP) and MeOH gives rise to a decoupling of nucleophilicity from the oxidation potential. In their Full Paper on page 12321 ff. , S. R. Waldvogel and co‐authors rationalize the outstanding selectivity of the anodic cross‐coupling. This solvent effect explains also the selectivity previously found by HFIP mixtures.
