Check in a statement of Historical Overview
The statement "the first transition metal-mediated intermolecular C–H activation of unactivated and completely saturated hydrocarbons by oxidative addition" must be revised. Shilov system seems to be the first one.

Bibliography: Crabtree, R. H. Alkane C-H Activation and Functionalization with Homogeneous Transition Metal Catalysts: A Century of Progress - A New Millennium in Prospect. J. Chem. Soc. Dalt. Trans. 2001, No. 17, 2437–2450.

Quote of the bibliography: "Even though these results were mostly either ignored or met with disbelief at first, they can now be seen as the origin of the organometallic class of alkane oxidations." (pag. 2442)
