I guess you can call it an amide formation via acylating an aniline 🙂

it would be a way to prepare aryl amides, and obviously if there are more carbons attached then there you go, you extended the carbon chain!

Not that I know. But from the textbooks, this would go to section for protecting groups.

It is a specific example of much larger class of rxns call Nucleophilic Acyl Substitution. Most textbooks have a chapter about Carboxylic Acid Derivatives covering it.

It's the Schotten-Baumann reaction, but I doubt you'd ever have to know that for the DAT.
