Palindromic Residue

Question

Today, as I'm writing this, is March 31st. In the US, this is 3/31. I was playing around with 331 as a number to come up with a challenge, and found that its residues (modulo small numbers) is palindromic. 331%2=1, 331%3=1, 331%4=3, 331%5=1, 331%6=1 (11311).

Your challenge here is, when given an integer n > 2, output the first n positive numbers that have palindromic residue when taken modulo [2,n].

For example, for input 7, the output should be 1, 42, 43, 140, 182, 420, 421. Here's the chart explaining why that's the case:

        mod
num | 2 3 4 5 6 7
-----------------
  1 | 1 1 1 1 1 1
 42 | 0 0 2 2 0 0
 43 | 1 1 3 3 1 1
140 | 0 2 0 0 2 0
182 | 0 2 2 2 2 0
420 | 0 0 0 0 0 0
421 | 1 1 1 1 1 1

Input

A single positive integer n with n > 2 in any convenient format.

Output

The resulting array/list of the first n palindromic residues, as outlined above. Again, in any suitable format.

Rules

• For n > 10, assume the residue list to be flattened before checking whether it's a palindrome. That is, [1, 10, 11] is palindromic, but [1, 10, 1] is not.
• Either a full program or a function are acceptable. If a function, you can return the output rather than printing it.
• If possible, please include a link to an online testing environment so other people can try out your code!
• Standard loopholes are forbidden.
• This is code-golf so all usual golfing rules apply, and the shortest code (in bytes) wins.

Examples

10
[1, 280, 281, 560, 1611, 1890, 1891, 2170, 2171, 2241]

Answer 1

Haskell, 57 bytes

f n=take n[x|x<-[1..],(==)=<<reverse$show.mod x=<<[2..n]]

Usage example: f 4 -> [1,4,5,8]. Try it online!

The first =<< is in function context and translates to the lambda \x -> reverse x == x and the second =<< is in list context and equivalent to concatMap, i.e. map-and-flatten-one-list-level.

NB: Because of the numerous recursive calls, this will crash for n > 8 on Firefox or n > 10 on Chrome.

f=(n,x=(k=--n,2))=>k?([...Array(n)].map(_=>(r=x%++i+r,x%i),i=1,r='').join``==r?k--&&x+' ':'')+f(n,x+1):1

(n:Int)=>Stream.from(1)filter{i=>val d=(2 to n)map(i%)mkString;d.reverse==d}take(n)

Explanation

Stream.from(1)                              // From an infinite Stream starting from 1,
    filter ( i => {                         // keep only elements matching the next condition :
        val d=(2 to n)map(i%)mkString;      // Generate residues and convert to String,
        d.reverse==d                        // return true if palindrom, false otherwise
    })take(n)                               // Finally, take the n first elements matching the condition

Test cases

val f = (n:Int)=>...    // assign function
(3 to 11).foreach { i =>
    println(i + "\n" + f(i).mkString(", ") + "\n")
