“…The selectivity of the cross‐coupling originates with the interaction of the coupling component with the solvent 1,1,1,3,3,3‐hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP), which allows the decoupling of nucleophilicity from the oxidation potential to some extent . So far, the synthesis of symmetric and non‐symmetric biphenols, phenol‐arenes, meta ‐terphenyl‐2,2′′‐diols, 2,2′‐diamino‐biaryls, and phenol‐thiophenes was accomplished . With regard to these results and those of many other groups, the electro‐organic synthesis is currently experiencing a renaissance.…”
