Bromodifluoroiodomethane is a tetrahalomethane with the chemical formula CBrF2I.[1] This is an organic compound containing two fluorine atoms, one bromine atom, and one iodine atom attached to the methane backbone.[2]
Synthesis
The compound can be obtained by reacting trifluoromethyltrifluorooxirane with iodine monobromide (IBr) in the presence of nickel to a yield of 13%. It reacts with nitric oxide to produce dark blue nitrosobromodifluoromethane.[3]
When difluorocarbene is formed in the presence of IBr, then bromodifluoroiodomethane is created as a byproduct.[4]
