A “motif” is a generalised structure. Motifs are normally chemically similar but slightly different. As a simple example, a hydrocarbon motif on the end of a molecule could be:
Methyl, ethyl, propyl, butyl etc. It could also include isopropyl and related branched chains.
All similar chemically but with slightly different electronic and sterics effects.
You could do a similar thing with aromatic rings i.e. substituting different positions with different ( but similar) groups.
There is however normally quite a big change when you swap an alkyl chain for a aromatic ring do these two sets are not the same motif.
