Transition‐metal‐catalyzed cross‐coupling reactions are powerful tools for constructing carbon–carbon and carbon–heteroatom bonds. In this microreview we summarize the nickel‐catalyzed cross‐coupling reactions with pincer ligands. The reactions presented here include Kumada, Negishi, Suzuki, and Sonogashira reactions for the formation of different types of C–C bonds, as well as the thiolation of aryl iodides.
