A catalytic intermolecular amination of nonactivated tertiary C(sp3)–H bonds (BDE of 96 kcal·mol–1) is reported for substrates displaying an activated benzylic site (BDE of 85 kcal·mol–1). The tertiary C(sp3)–H bond is selectively functionalized to afford α,α,α-trisubstituted amides in high yields. This unusual site-selectivity results from the synergistic combination of Rh2(S-tfpttl)4, a rhodium(II)
