Searching a little more I found one more alternative exp1 = x^3 + (1 + z)^2; MapAt[Sin, exp1, Flatten[(Position[exp1, #1] & ) /@ Cases[exp1, _?( !NumberQ[#1] & ), {-1}], 1]] Sin[x]^3 + (1 + Sin[z])^2 Are there any other alternatives? Especially with proper pattern matching? Thinking a little harder I consider the following pure function g = TrueQ[First[ToCharacterCode[ToString[p]]] < First[ToCharacterCode[ToString[#1]]] < First[ToCharacterCode[ToString[z]]]] & ; Then MapAt[Sin, exp1, Flatten[(Position[exp1, #1] & ) /@ Cases[exp1, _?( !NumberQ[#1] && g[#1] & ), {-1}], 1]] (1 + z)^2 + Sin[x]^3 Is it possible to obtain the previous result more compactly? Thanks
