in organic molecules. Methylene C–H bonds are among the most difficult chemical bonds to selectively functionalize because of their abundance in organicstructures and inertness to most chemical reagents. Their selective oxidations in biosynthetic pathways underscore the power of such reactions for streamlining the synthesis of molecules with complex oxygenation patterns. We report that an iron catalyst
