This Article describes the development of a stable Ni<sup>IV</sup> complex that mediates C(sp<sup>2</sup>)-H trifluoromethylation reactions. This reactivity is first demonstrated stoichiometrically and then successfully translated to a Ni<sup>IV</sup>-catalyzed C-H trifluoromethylation of electron-rich arene and heteroarene substrates. Both experimental and computational mechanistic studies support a radical chain pathway involving Ni<sup>IV</sup>, Ni<sup>III</sup>, and Ni<sup>II</sup> intermedi ...[more]
