Реферат: Flow chemistry offers several advantages for performing chemical reactions and has become an important area of research. It may seem that sufficient knowledge has already been acquired on this topic to understand how to choose the design of microreactor/micromixer and flow rate in order to achieve the desired outcome of a reaction. However, some experimental data are difficult to explain based on commonly accepted concepts of chemical reactivity and performance of microfluidic systems. In this mini review, we attempt to identify such data and offer a rational explanation of unusual results based on the supramer approach. We demonstrate that variation in flow regime (determined by mixer design and flow rate) can either improve or worsen the reactivity and lead to completely different products, including stereoisomers. It is not necessary to mix the reagents with maximum efficiency. The real challenge is to mix reagents the right way since at a too high or too low flow rate (in the particular mixer), the molecules of reagents are incorrectly presented on the surface of supramers, leading to altered stereoselectivity, or form tight supramers, in which most of the molecules are located inside the supramer core and are inaccessible for attack, leading to low yields.
