How fast are flashes? The field of flow chemistry has recently received increasing attention owing to the availability of commercial flow equipment. New syntheses with very short-lived intermediates have been enabled by sub-millisecond mixing and reaction regimes in tailor-made flow devices.
Keywords: Fries rearrangement; flash chemistry; flow chemistry; microreactors; organolithium compounds.
