Bromodifluoroiodomethane is atetrahalomethane with the chemical formulaCBrF2I.[1] This is an organic compound containing twofluorine atoms, onebromine atom, and oneiodine atom attached to the methane backbone.[2]
The compound can be obtained by reactingtrifluoromethyltrifluorooxirane withiodine monobromide (IBr) in the presence ofnickel to a yield of 13%. It reacts withnitric oxide to produce dark bluenitrosobromodifluoromethane.[3]
Whendifluorocarbene is formed in the presence of IBr, then bromodifluoroiodomethane is created as a byproduct.[4]
