This perspective provides a brief overview on the role of isomerism of secondary‐sphere functionality in molecular electrocatalysis, without which there exists a clear knowledge‐gap in defining a molecule's structure‐activity relation. The discussion unfolds how isomerism of the functionality triggers short‐range interactions in the molecule leading to unprecedented events in electrocatalysis. This perspective highlights that the isomerism of substituents makes an independent contribution to electrocatalysis over its nature and for exploiting the maximum potential of the molecule in electrocatalysis, nature of the substituent as well as its isomerism should be given consideration.
