Figure 3 shows this effect of reaction time on the acetylation oftriethanol-amine. Within a 30-minute acetylation time, a normal titration curve is obtained, whereas the inflection point is completely obscured in 90 minutes. Evidently, acetylation of the three hydroxyl groups successively increases the chain length of the original tri-ethanolamine molecule with acetoxy groups, whose electron-withdrawing tendencies progressively diminish the basic character of the nitrogen atom. Titration of these various basic moieties produces a result similar to that obtained by titrating an amine which contains small amounts of other amines of varying basic strengths; that is, the titration curve does not yield a well defined inflection point. Dimethyl-ethanolamine does not behave in this manner because only one acetoxy group can be addedto the molecule, and this effect is insufficient to overcome the basicity contributions of the electronreleasing V-methyl groups. The tri-ethanolamine problem can be avoided by restricting the acetylation time to 30 minutes.
