Question

Which reagent is useful in increasing the carbon chain of an alkyl halide

Answer 1

Answer:

Ello...

The Alkyl Moiety If we examine a series of alkyl bromide substitution reactions with the strong nucleophile thiocyanide (SCN–) in ethanol solvent, we find large decreases in the rates of reaction as alkyl substitution of the alpha-carbon increases

follow me....

Answer 2

Answer:

Nucleophilic reagent

Explanation:

In alkyle halides, in order to increase their chain of carbon, there are several technqiues used and one of that is the replacement reaction. When they are reacted with nucleophilic reagent, then we see a replacement of the halogen on the alpha carbon and halide is replaced.

In this reaction, alocohol is also added which acts as a catalyst, it speeds up the reaction
