An efficient, straightforward and general method for the de novo synthesis of highly functionalized 4-fluoropyridines was developed via a cooperative copper- and base-catalyzed [3+3] cycloaddition of active methylene isocyanides with difluorocyclopropenes. The resulting 4-fluoropyridines can be readily diversified by various nucleophiles.A mesoionic N-heterocyclic carbene-gold(I) complex with a unique Au⋯H-C(methine) intramolecular hydrogen bonding interaction has been investigated in the solid state. The structure of this new neutral
