A novel approach to the trifluoromethylation of unactivated alkenes is presented. This reaction is promoted by N-iodosuccinimide (NIS) undervisiblelight irradiation without the need for photocatalysts. The mild conditions allow the direct synthesis of useful trifluoromethylated (E)-alkenes from readily available alkene feedstocks with excellent functional group tolerability. In addition, using easy-to-handle
