Nucleophilic oxidation (NOR) has great potential as an alternative to OER. NOR offers faster kinetics, generates high‐value products, and reduces energy consumption. By coupling NOR with hydrogen evolution reaction, hydrogen production efficiency can be enhanced while yielding valuable by‐products or degrading pollutants.
