Pt‐group metal (PGM) electrocatalysts with unique electronic structures and irreplaceable comprehensive properties play crucial roles in electrocatalysis. Anion engineering can create a series of PGM compounds (such as RuP 2 , IrP 2 , PtP 2 , RuB 2 , Ru 2 B 3 , RuS 2 , etc.) that provide a promising prospect for improving the electrocatalytic performance and use of Pt‐group noble metals. This review seeks the electrochemical activity origin of anion‐modulated PGM compounds, and systematically analyzes and summarizes their synthetic strategies and energy‐relevant applications in electrocatalysis.
