Answer:

Aniline does not under Friedel-Craft reaction (alkylation and acetylation) due to the salt formation with aluminium chloride, the Lewis acid which is used as a catalyst. Due to this, the nitrogen of aniline acquires a positive charge and hence acts as a strong deactivating group for further reaction.
