A mild procedure for the oxidative C−C cross‐coupling of tertiary anilines with phenols is described which provides the products generally in high yields and with excellent selectivity. The reaction is catalyzed by the hexadecafluorinated iron–phthalocyanine complex FePcF 16 in the presence of substoichiometric amounts of methanesulfonic acid and ambient air as sole oxidant.
