A compound is a compound in its own and has several physical and chemical properties. But if you add a functional group in it, it will not further remain the same compound.Say for example that alcoholic group is attached to methane,then it will not remain the original methane. It will become methanol or methyl alcohol which differ in many properties compared to methane.
