Acetylation of aniline with acetic anhydride in presence of pyridine yields acetanilide (.X.) and acetic acid. <img class="img-fluid question-image" alt="Solution" src="https://cdn.tardigrade.in/q/nta/c-ojd1duejo0q6zcfx.jpg" /> Among the given groups, - NH-CO-,-CH3 and - C6H5 are present in acetanilide.

$- N O_{2}$	$- N H - CO -$	$- N H_{2}$
$- COO H$	$- C H_{3}$	$- N = N -$
$- C H_{2} C H_{3}$	$- C_{6} H_{5}$	$- O H$

Q. Reaction of aniline with acetic anhydride in presence of pyridine yields acetic acid and product ′X′ . What is the total number of groups from the following, present in the compound ′X′ ? −NO2​ −NH−CO− −NH2​ −COOH −CH3​ −N=N− −CH2​CH3​ −C6​H5​ −OH

Acetylation of aniline with acetic anhydride in presence of pyridine yields acetanilide (X) and acetic acid. Among the given groups, - NH−CO−,−CH3​ and - C6​H5​ are present in acetanilide.

Acetylation of aniline with acetic anhydride in presence of pyridine yields acetanilide $(X)$ and acetic acid.

Among the given groups, - $N H - CO -, - C H_{3}$ and - $C_{6} H_{5}$ are present in acetanilide.
