Summary of main observation and conclusion We herein uncovered an electrochemical C—H halogenation protocol that synergistically combines anodic oxidation and cathodic reduction for C—X bond formation. The reaction was demonstrated under exogenous‐oxidant‐free conditions. Moreover, this is the first example of activating CBr 4 , CHBr 3 , and CCl 3 Br under electrochemical conditions.
