It is hard to draw structures on here!
BZP is benzyl piperazine. It has a secondar amine, tertiary amine and a benzene ring (if you are counting this as a FG).
3-Trifluoromethylphenylpiperazine (TFMPP) has the same functional groups. The trifluoromethyl group is not normally considered to be a functional group.
MDMA (3,4-Methylenedioxymethamphetamine) or ecstacy has a secondary amine group, a benzene ring (if you count this) and methylenedioxy (which are ether functional groups).
So in common they have a secondary amine group and the benzene ring.
They all have similar structures to the basic amphetmine structure

It is easier if you can make models of thse and compare them.
Thank you Dr Russ !
