An expanded porphyrin-biscopper hexaphyrin was introduced as a bioinspired molecular tweezer to co-catalyze functionalization of C(sp(3))-H bonds. Theoretical and experimental investigations suggested that the biscopper hexaphyrin served as a molecular tweezer to mimic the enzymatic orientation/proximity effect, efficiently activating the N-hydroxyphthalimide (NHPI) via light-free proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET), at an exceptionally low catalyst loading of 10 mol ppm. The resulting N-oxyl radical (PINO) was versatile for chemoselective C-H oxidation and amination of hydrocarbons.
