In oxidation of alkenes with the BF3-H2O2 system, boron trifluoride induces transfer of available oxygen from hydrogen peroxide, accompanied by the formation of epoxides. The oxidation in methanol occurs as a one-pot two-step process involving epoxidation of the C=C bond followed by opening of the oxirane ring, with the formation of methoxyalkanols.
