A new protocol for SO bond formation was developed by electrochemical oxidative cross‐coupling between alcohols and thiophenols. With this strategy, a series of valuable sulfinicester derivatives were synthesized up to 96% yield from basic starting materials. A preliminary mechanistic investigation reveals that this reaction involves oxygen reduction reaction (ORR).
