We report herein the transfer of dual photoredox and nickel catalysis for C(sp²)C(sp³) cross coupling form batch to flow. This new procedure clearly improves the scalability of the previous batch reaction by the reactor's size and operating time reduction, and allows the preparation of interesting compounds for drug discovery in multigram amounts.
