Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Tertiary Amines**: - Tertiary amines are organic compounds that contain a nitrogen atom bonded to three carbon-containing groups (R groups). The general structure can be represented as R₃N, where R can be any alkyl or aryl group. 2. **Acylation Reaction**: - Acylation is a reaction where an acyl group (RCO-) is introduced into a molecule. In the case of amines, this typically involves the reaction of the amine with an acyl chloride (like acetyl chloride) or an anhydride. ...
