La forma preferible [...] es "(hidro)clorofluorocarburo", que indica correctamente tanto la composición como la estructura [del compuesto]. Los CFC [clorofluorocarburos] y HCFC [hidroclorofluorocarburos] son compuestos derivados de los hidrocarburos (hydrocarbon en inglés) por sustitución de todos o algunos de sus átomos de hidrógeno con átomos de cloro y de flúor. Su nombre, lógicamente, debe reflejar esta sustitución. Los nombres de los compuestos orgánicos con átomos de cloro o de flúor incluyen el prefijo «cloro» o «fluoro». Luego clorofluorocarburo e hidroclorofluorocarburo son las mejores posibilidades. 4, record 1, Spanish, - hidroclorofluorocarburo
