Explore its structure
Choose a part to light it up.
A C=O joined through an oxygen to another carbon, the link an acid and an alcohol make when they combine. Water can split it back into the two.
From: standard chemistry.
A nitrogen bonded to three carbons, with no hydrogen of its own. Its spare pair of electrons can still pick up a hydrogen ion, so a tertiary amine is a base.
From: standard chemistry.
Rings joined where they share atoms, or a single ring standing alone. Atoms in a ring are held in place, so this part keeps its shape while chains around it can bend.
From: standard chemistry.
