Summary of main observation and conclusion An efficient electrochemical access to the non‐symmetric biphenols using tri( p ‐bromophenyl)amine (TBPA) as a redox mediator has been developed. The electrochemical protocol features highly selective cross‐coupling products in up to 83% yield, instead of forming homo‐coupling ones.
