Unlike other Mn-catalyzed C-H functionalization, this protocol does not require a Grignard reagent base and employs a simple and inexpensive MnBr2 as a catalyst. This method tolerates diverse functionalities, including fluoro, chloro, bromo, iodo, alkenyl, alkynyl, pyrrolyl, and carbazolyl groups. The alkylation proceeds through a single-electron transfer pathway comprising reversible C-H manganesation and involving an alkyl radical intermediate.&lt;/p&gt;
