Mode opératoire

2-(2-fluoro-5-nitrophenyl)-2-methyloxirane (1 eq) was dissolved in ethyl ether (1 mL) under nitrogen. BF3-etherate (0.87 eq) was added dropwise at room temperature and after complete addition solution was allowed to stir for 1 h. Solution was then quenched with water, extracted with ethyl ether. Organics washed with brine, dried with sodium sulfate and concentrated. Crude product was purified using flash chromatography (85% Hex: 15% EtOAc) on silica to afford 2-(2-fluoro-5-nitrophenyl) propanal.
