The acylation reaction of amines is carried out in presence of pyridine because (i) pyridine is stronger base than amine. (ii) pyridine is weaker base than amine. (iii) pyridine removes HCl formed and shifts the equilibrium to the right hand side. (iv) pyridine removes HCl formed and shifts the equilibrium to the left hand side.

Pyridine is a stronger base than the amine, pyridine removes HCl formed in acylation reaction of amines and shifts the equilibrium to the right hand side

$(i)$ and $(iii)$

$(ii)$ and $(i v)$

$(ii)$ and $(iii)$

$(i)$ and $(i v)$

Pyridine is a stronger base than the amine, pyridine removes $H Cl$ formed in acylation reaction of amines and shifts the equilibrium to the right hand side
