trace amounts of benzylicC−H insertion. The use of [H2B(3,5‐(CF3)2‐4‐(NO2)Pz)2]Cu(NCMe) that has an even weakly donating pyrazolate generated the arene C−H insertion product exclusively. The tris(pyrazolyl)borate complex [HB(3,5‐(CF3)2Pz)3]Cu(NCMe), in contrast, generated the benzylic amination product from mesitylene and PhI=NNs in 82 % yield with only very minor amounts of arene C−H functionalization
