The reaction is performed under standard conditions, at room temperature, with either dichloromethane or trichloromethane.

Small amounts of chloromethane, dichloromethane and trichloromethane were detected.

Chloroform (also called trichloromethane) is a chemical substance.

It is a pale yellow oily liquid, soluble in dichloromethane and trichloromethane.

In this reaction, the result is a mix of chloromethane, dichloromethane, trichloromethane and tetrachloromethane.

For example, CHCl3 (chloroform) is trichloromethane.

Chloroform (trichloromethane)

An example is a mixture of trichloromethane (chloroform) and 2-propanone (acetone), which boils above the boiling point of either pure component.

This fraction was further treated with aluminium oxide, chromatography, trichloromethane, benz-dichloromethane, and separation by pH to yield vincristine.

The following are examples of azeotropic mixtures: hydrochloric acid/water, ethanol/water, trichloromethane/ propane and benzene/ethanol.

Short chain haloalkanes such as dichloromethane, trichloromethane (chloroform) and tetrachloromethane are commonly used as hydrophobic solvents in chemistry.

Further reaction of chloromethane with chlorine can produce dichloromethane, trichloromethane (known as chloroform) and tetrachloromethane (also known as carbon tetrachloride).

If ammonia is first dissolved in water, and then an equal volume of trichloromethane is added, and the two liquids shaken together, the following equilibrium is established:

Spiders and crabs and scorpions, all made of carbon polymers- recycled sewage, actually-they sprayed sticky antipersonnel foam everywhere, releasing anesthetic trichloromethane vapor wherever anyone struggled.

However, many of these compounds have already an established trivial name, which is endorsed by the IUPAC nomenclature, for example chloroform (trichloromethane) and methylene chloride (dichloromethane).

The insecticide properties of "multiple chlorinated aliphatic or fat-aromatic alcohols with at least one trichloromethane group" were described in a patent in 1934 by Wolfgang von Leuthold.

Samuel Guthrie was a 19th century physician and chemist who discovered the anaesthetic chloroform (trichloromethane) in 1831, by distilling chloride of lime with alcohol in a copper barrel, using it as a mild anesthetic in amputation surgeries.

PMMA can be joined using cyanoacrylate cement (commonly known as superglue), with heat (welding), or by using solvents such as di- or trichloromethane to dissolve the plastic at the joint, which then fuses and sets, forming an almost invisible weld.

The substance is stable when dissolved in ether and trichloromethane at 30 C, but decomposes into a 1:1 mixture of carbon monoxide (CO) and carbon dioxide (CO) upon heating to 0 C. The stability and conformation of the molecule were also analyzed by theoretical methods.
