Abstract Hybrid Ni@g‐C 3 N 4 ‐catalyzed highly chemoselective reduction of nitroarenes with high turnover frequency has been demonstrated using NaBH as source hydrogen. Here, g‐C provides excellent stability to Ni(0) nanoparticles on its nitrogen rich surface and also facilitates the dissociation resulting formation active Νi‐H + ‐ via cooperative effect.
