The selective and efficient functionalization of CÀH bonds has attracted much attention from both academia and industry in the past decade,[1] and various methods, especially ones based on transition-metal catalysts, have been developed and applied in the synthesis of complex molecules.[1, 2] Although great progress has been made in this area, new processes for the construction of CÀC bonds starting from CÀH bonds are still highly desirable. The synthesis of benzylic derivatives from starting materials containing a benzylic CÀH bond is well known (Scheme1, pathsA and B), although multistep syntheses are still commonly used. Alternatively, various catalytic methods have been developed recently that allow the direct functionalization of benzylic CÀH bonds (Scheme 1, path C).[3, 4]Although transition-metal catalysts are widely used in organic synthesis, the use of more readily available and nontoxic catalysts instead of expensive and sensitive catalysts is highly desirable. The numerous advantages of iron make it highly attractive as a catalyst or reagent for chemical synthesis.[5] Iron-catalyzed CÀH bond oxidations in systems such
