The substituted hydrocarbon is a hydrocarbon with one or more of hydrogen is substituted with other element, (every so often a halogen like as bromine or chlorine) or other group of atoms as -OH. Such as: -
The simple hydrocarbon is methane (CH4). Substitute chlorine for the hydrogen to get
Methyl Chloride (CH3Cl) is used for cleaning. Sub to get-
Methylene Chloride (CH2Cl2) is used as a paint stripper. Sub to get-
Chloroform (CHCl3) is an antique anaesthetic. Sub to get-
Carbon Tetrachloride (CCl4) is used in the fire extinguishers and cleaning.
Substitute single -OH group into the -
CH4 to get methanol (CH3OH) or into C2H6 to get ethanol (C2H5OH)
The above instances all begin with the unbranched non-cyclic hydrocarbons, but any hydrocarbon is an appropriate target. A known instance is a double replacement of chlorine at the opposite ends of the benzene ring to form paradichlorbenzene, normally found hanging in toilet bowls. C6H6 becomes C6H4Cl2
