Answer» 1. Tertiary amine do not undergo acylation reaction because they do not contain a H-atom on the N-atom. 2. This is due to the strong activating effect of the amino group, Halogenation of amines occur very fast and halogens enter at all the three (one P-and two o-positions) positions even in the absence of the catalyst. |
