All of these reasons were connected with the way electrons are distributed in the group. Functional groups are the places where changing the location of electrons can happen fairly easily, which means that the distribution of electrons in a functional group is a key to its reactivity. We need a specific example to make these ideas useful.

We also learned about the sequence (order) in which amino acid units are joined in peptides. Today we'll study the ways in which the specific sequence of a peptide may be discovered and the methods which are used to synthesize such a peptide.

Our focus will be on the alpha amino acids, those in which the amino group is bonded to the alpha carbon -- the one next to the carbonyl group -- of the carboxylic acid. These are the basic building blocks of proteins and are the most important type of amino acid.

First, let's take a look at the structural representations which distinguish aromatic compounds from those that aren't aromatic.
