A single and simple ortho ‐sulfonyl benzonitrile template was developed to achieve remote C−H olefination of six different classes of N‐heterocycles. We demonstrate that, by varying precatalysts and conditions, the same template can be applied to the remote C−H activation of six structurally distinct heterocyclic scaffolds, and the site‐selectivity can be predicted based on distance and geometry. Furthermore, this new development shows that template‐directed remote C−H activation is possible through macrocyclopalladation processes with smaller ring sizes.
