ANILINE (C H NH )652Aniline is also called aminobenzene or phenyl amine. Aniline was first prepared by Unverdon 1826 by thedistillation of indigo which is called anil in spanish and hence the name aniline.In aniline —NH group2is directly attached to benzene ring.General Methods of Preparation :( 1 )Lab method : Aniline is prepared in the lab by reduction of C H NO with Sn + HCl.652C H NO652(i)Sn HCl(ii)NaOHC H NH + H O6522( 2 )Industrial method : Aniline is obtained by reduction of nitrobenzene in presence of Fe/HCl.C H —NO652(i) Fe HCl(ii)NaOHC H —NH + H O65 2 2( 3 )From Phenol : Aniline is obtained when phenol is treated with ammonia in presence of ZnCl at 300°C.2C H OH + NH6532 ZnCl300 CC H NH + H O6522( 4 )From benzamide (Hofmann's reaction): Aniline is formed when benzamide is treated with Br and KOH.2C H CONH + Br + 4KOH6522C H NH + K CO + 2KBr + 2H O652232( 5 )From benzoic acid (Schmidt reaction) : Benzoic acid is dissolved in conc.

On standing the colour becomes dark brown due to action of airand light.(ii)It's B.P. is 183° C.(iii)It is heavier than water.(iv)It has characteristic unpleasent odour. It is toxic in nature.
