    I gave you this link in your last question:

    Diazepam - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    You should have been able to look at the structure and see the functional groups.

    The Carbonyl group (R2C=O) is a ketone. The N-R1R2R3 is an amine. The R1=N-R2 group is an imine and the R-Cl group is just a chloride. There is also an aromatic ring (Phenyl), but usually one doesn't usually think of them as a functional group.

    Why all the interest in Valium?
