The generation of highly unstable chloromethylmagnesium chloride in a continuous flow reactor and its reaction with aldehydes and ketones is reported. With this strategy, chlorohydrins and epoxides were synthesized within a total residence time of only 2.6 s. The outcome of the reaction can be tuned by simply using either a basic or an acidic quench. Very good to excellent isolated yields, up to 97%, have been obtained for most cases (30 examples).

The mixed lithium-magnesium carbenoid ClCH2MgCl·LiCl was easily generated in THF through the reaction of chloroiodomethane with i-PrMgCl·LiCl at -78 °C. This reagent reacts well with a number of aldehydes to give the corresponding chlorohydrins in good yields.
