Completing the cycle: Cobalt complexes I and II were found to catalyze intramolecular alkyl Heck‐type coupling reactions of alkyliodides to alkenes upon irradiation with visible light in the presence of a tertiary amine base. The use of base is key to the catalytic turnover. The compatibility of the method with a broad range of functional groups opens opportunities for synthesis.
