Direct cross‐dehydrogenative coupling of different inert C−H bonds is the most straightforward and environmentally benign method to construct C−C bonds. In this paper, we developed an iron‐catalyzed intramolecular cross‐dehydrogenative arylation (CDA) between benzylic C( sp 3 )H bond and aromatic C( sp 2 )H bond. From the readily available linear substrates, 1‐arylnaphthalenes and 4‐arylcoumarins can be quickly constructed with moderate to good yield (18 examples, up to 73 % yield) in one step. Both symmetrical and unsymmetrical substrates with different functional groups could tolerate this system well to form the anticipated products. A radical initiated dehydrogenative cyclization‐dehydrogenation tandem process was proposed.
