A series of tetranuclear [LM3 (HFArPz)3 OM'][OTf]2 (M, M'=Fe or Mn) clusters that displays 3-(2-fluorophenyl)pyrazolate (HFArPz) as bridging ligand is reported. With these complexes, manganese was demonstrated to facilitate C(sp2 )-F bond oxygenation via a putative terminal metal-oxo species. Moreover, the presence of both ortho C(sp2 )-H and C(sp2 )-F bonds in proximity of the apical metal center provided an opportunity to investigate the selectivity of intramolecular C(sp2 )-X bond oxygenation (X=H or F) in these isostructural compounds. With iron as the apical metal center, (M'=Fe) C(sp2 )-F bond oxygenation occur almost exclusively, whereas with manganese (M'=Mn), the opposite reactivity is preferred.
