    Structure of the product has been shown below

    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.
