Special name of some of the aromatic amines are,
| aniline |
| p-anisidine |
| m-toluidine |
| o-phenylenediamine |
The remaining aromatic amines are named as derivatives of these or (in the presence of more important functional groups) as "amino-" derivatives, or as "phenylamines".
Examples:
| 2,4,6-tribromoaniline |
| diphenylamine |
| 2,4-dinitro-N-methylaniline |
Ammonium salts
These are named by changing the "-e" of the special names to "-ium".
Examples:
| anilinium chloride |
| 3-nitro-N,N-dimethylanilium bromide |
Acyl derivatives (Amides)
Simple acyl derivatives are named by adding the trivial acid name stem to "-anilide" etc.
Example: Acetanilide
