A series of tetranuclear [LM 3 (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(sp 2 )−F bond oxygenation via a putative terminal metal‐oxo species. Moreover, the presence of both ortho C(sp 2 )−H and C(sp 2 )−F bonds in proximity of the apical metal center provided an opportunity to investigate the selectivity of intramolecular C(sp 2 )−X bond oxygenation (X=H or F) in these isostructural compounds. With iron as the apical metal center, (M′=Fe) C(sp 2 )−F bond oxygenation occur almost exclusively, whereas with manganese (M′=Mn), the opposite reactivity is preferred.
