The distribution of tritium in some tritiated anilides (acetanilide, propionanilide, n-butylanilide, iso-butylanilide) which were produced by irradiation of mixed powder of anilides and lithium carbonate, were investigated. The tritium contents of the ortho-, meta-, and para-positions in the anilides were obtained by the activity measurement of some derivatives. The reactivities of ortho-position for tritium decreases in the order acetanilide, propionanilide, nbutylanilide, iso-butylanilide, perhaps because of steric interference of alkyl groups. The contents of incorporated tritium in alkyl groups were 13.2%, 31.7%, 31.1%, and 45.4%, for acetanilide, propionanilide, n-butylanilide, iso- butylanilide, respectively.
