The regioselectivity and reaction rate of the fluorous lanthanide complex-catalyzed Mukaiyama aldol and BaeyerVilliger reactions were significantly increased using our nanoflow microreactor. A moderate level of kinetic resolution was also observed even in the lowest concentration of the fluorous lanthanide catalysts (catalyst-to-substrate (C/S) molar ratio is less than 1:1000(
