A dual catalytic sp3 a C–H arylation & alkylation of benzamides with organic halides is described. This protocol exhibits excellent chemoselectivity and exquisite site-selectivity, offering a complementary reactivity mode to existing sp3 arylation or alkylation events via either transition metal catalysis or photoredox events.
