Hi here is your answer:
Aniline do not undergo friedel crafts reactions because AlCl3 which is used as a Lewis acid and a catalyst infriedel crafts reactions being electron deficient acts as Lewis base and attacks on the lone pair of nitrogen present in aniline to form an insoluble complex which precipitates out.

the friedel-crafts reaction is carried out in the presence of lewis acid such as agcl3. aniline being basic in nature react with agcl3 and form salt . due to the positive charge on nitrogen electrophillic subsitution reaction on benzene ring deactivated. hence aniline does not under go friedel craft reaction.
