The reagent used in carbylamine reaction is ----------------------- and the product of the reaction will be ---------------

Step-by-step solution

The carbylamine reaction is a characteristic test for primary amines (both aliphatic and aromatic). When a primary amine is heated with chloroform ( CHCl ₃ ) and alcoholic potassium hydroxide ( KOH ), it forms an isocyanide (also known as carbylamine), which has a characteristic foul smell. The general reaction is: R- NH ₂ + CHCl ₃ + 3 KOH (alc.) R- NC + 3 KCl + 3 H ₂ O Thus, the reagent used is alcoholic KOH + CHCl ₃ and the product is an isocyanide. Answer: Alcoholic KOH + CHCl ₃ ; isocyanide
