Inorganic chemistry, anilides (orphenylamides) are a class of organic compounds with the general structure R−C(=O)−N(−R’)−C6H5. They are amide derivativesofaniline (H2N−C6H5).
Aniline reacts with acyl chloridesorcarboxylic 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]
