Anilide

Anilides (or phenylamides) are a class of chemical compounds which are acyl derivatives of aniline.

General chemical structure of an anilide

Preparation

Aniline reacts with acyl chlorides or carboxylic anhydrides to give anilides. For example, reaction of aniline with acetyl chloride provides acetanilide (CH3-CO-NH-C6H5). At high temperatures, aniline and carboxylic acids react to give anilides.[1]

Uses


gollark: Yours is.
gollark: Well, the server is *down* now.
gollark: Hmm.
gollark: Also, *it is too much for my poor laptop*.
gollark: I mean, server administration is hard, sure. I was an admin for a bit and accidentally erased all the modded blocks from the world as well as recent backups... but this is more of a technical issue, and you people appear to be able to mess up the nontechnical side very well.
