## Abstract In this work we report the unique electrocatalytic role of benzoic acid protected silver nanoclusters (Ag~__n__~, mean core diameter 2.5 nm) in the Wolff rearrangement (Scheme 1) of α‐diazoketones. More specifically, the presence of a Ag~__n__~^0^/Ag~__n__~^+^ redox couple facilitates a
