The ortho‐ferration of functionalizedarenesusing tmp2Fe⋅2MgCl2⋅4LiCl furnishes the corresponding diorgano FeII reagents at 25 °C in high yields. These reagents undergo cross‐coupling reactions in the presence of 4‐fluorostyrene to give various alkylated arenes. It turned out that NiII impurities present in commercial FeCl2 (98 % pure) catalyzed this alkyl–aryl cross‐coupling reaction.
