What is the role of pyridine in the acylation reaction of amines?

Answers

Answered by Somyasisodiya

Pyridine is a reasonable nucleophile for carbonyl groups and is often used as a catalyst in acylation reactions. The nitrogen atom in pyridine is nucleophilic because the lone pair of electrons on nitrogen cannot be delocalised around the ring.
