Reagents used in chemical reactions are substances that bring about chemical change by participating directly in the reaction. Their main characteristics include reactivity, selectivity, stability, availability, and efficiency. A good reagent should react under mild conditions, give a high yield of the desired product, and show high selectivity so that side reactions are minimized. Reagents should be sufficiently stable during storage and handling, yet reactive enough to complete the reaction in a reasonable time. They should be easy to measure, handle, and apply in laboratory or industrial processes. Cost-effectiveness and consistent quality are also important characteristics, especially
