In enzymology, a phthalyl amidase (EC 3.5.1.79) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

a phthalylamide + H2O phthalic acid + a substituted amine

Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are and H2O, whereas its two products are phthalic acid and .

This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, those acting on carbon-nitrogen bonds other than peptide bonds, specifically in linear amides. The systematic name of this enzyme class is phthalyl-amide amidohydrolase.
