Aryl amines are privileged structural motifs ubiquitous in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and natural products. Herein, we report an electrocatalytic reductive coupling of nitroarenes with alkyl halides that enables the direct and step‐economic synthesis of N ‐alkylarylamines. This protocol features mild electrochemical conditions, broad functional group tolerance, and an exceptionally wide substrate scope, accommodating both benzylic and aliphatic halides. The synthetic utility of this method is further underscored by gram‐scale synthesis and a series of downstream derivatizations, highlighting its practicality and sustainability.
