Abstract: The activation of C–C bonds is of fundamental interest in the

construction of complex molecules from petrochemical feedstocks. In the case

of the archetypal aromatic hydrocarbon benzene, C–C cleavage is

thermodynamically disfavored, and is brought about only by transient highly

reactive species generated in situ. Here we show that the oxidative addition of

the C–C bond in benzene by an isolated metal complex is not only possible,

but occurs at room temperature and reversibly at a single aluminium center in

[(NON)Al]− (where NON = 4,5-bis(2,6-diisopropylanilido)-2,7-di-tert-butyl-9,9-

dimethylxanthene). Selectivity over C–H bond activation is achieved kinetically

and allows for the generation of functionalized acyclic products from benzene.
