ROH + SOCl 2 longrightarrow R- Cl + SO 2+ HCl HCl +R3 N longrightarrow R3 N ⋅ HCl

Q. Assertion Reaction of alcohols with $SOC l_{2}$ is catalysed by the presence of a tertiary amine $(R_{3} N)$ .
Reason Tertiary amine promote the reaction by reacting with the by-product $H Cl$ .

Both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion

Both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion

Assertion is true but Reason is false

Both Assertion and Reason are false

$RO H + SOC l_{2} ⟶ R - Cl + S O_{2} + H Cl$
$H Cl + R_{3} N ⟶ R_{3} N \cdot H Cl$
