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

In Amines, the nitrogen atom bonds with alkyl or aryl groups replacing hydrogen, whereas in amides, the nitrogen atom bonds directly with the carbonyl group (-CO-).

Kjeldahl's method is not applicable to compounds containing nitrogen in nitro and azo groups and nitrogen present in the ring.

$C{H}_{3}C{H}_{2}N{O}_2\stackrel{573K}{\to }C{H}_2=C{H}_2+HN{O}_2$

Correct order of basic strength in aqueous medium is

${\left(C{H}_3\right)}_{2}NH>C{H}_{3}N{H}_2>{\left(C{H}_3\right)}_{3}N>N{H}_3$
