Answer:

Structure of the product has been shown below

Step-by-step explanation:

  • N atom in aniline acts as a nucleophile and carbonyl group of propanoic acid acts as an electrophilic center.
  • A nucleophilic acyl substitution reaction occurs on mixing and heating mixture of aniline and propanoic acid.
  • In this reaction an amide is formed.
  • Reaction mechanism goes through addition-ellimination pathway at carbonyl center.
  • Full reaction mechanism has been shown below.
