An unprecedented type of reaction for Cu-catalyzed trifluoromethylation of terminal alkenes is reported. This reaction represents a rare instance of catalytic trifluoromethylation through C(sp(3))-H activation. It also provides a mechanistically unique example of Cu-catalyzed allylic C-H activation/functionalization. Both experimental and
