Procedure

N,N-Dimethyl-2-(4-fluoro-2-nitrophenyl)ethenylamine (6.72 g, 32 mmol) and NaIO4 (20.53 g, 96 mmol) were stirred in 50% aqueous THF (160 ml) at room temperature for 1.5 hours. The mixture was filtered in a celite pad and eluted with EtOAc. The organic layer was washed with NaHCO3 (saturated solution, 3×100 ml), dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by flash chromatography (50% CH2Cl2 /hexane) affording 4-fluoro-2-nitro benzaldehyde as an orange oil.
