Acetanilide is the organic compound with the formula C6H5NHC(O)CH3. It is the N-acetylated derivative of aniline.[7] It is an odourless solid chemical of leaf or flake-like appearance. It is also known as N-phenylacetamide, acetanil, or acetanilid, and was formerly known by the trade name Antifebrin.
N-Phenyl derivatives of primary amides are called 'anilides' and may be named using the term 'anilide' in place of 'amide' in systematic or retained names of amides. (…) However, names expressing N-substitution by a phenyl group on an amide are preferred IUPAC names.
