Definition of haloform in English:

haloform

nounˈheɪləʊfɔːmˈhaləˌfôrm

Chemistry

A compound derived from methane by substituting three hydrogen atoms by halogen atoms, e.g. chloroform.
as modifier haloform reaction
Example sentencesExamples
- In a haloform reaction with iodine, bromine, or chlorine, methyl ketones are converted into the corresponding carboxylic acid and haloform.
- Next to chloroform mixed haloforms will be produced if bromide or iodide is present in the water.
- Primarily the volatile haloforms such as chloroform, but also dichlorobromomethane, chlorodibromomethane and bromoforme, are suspected of being harmful to health, some even carcinogenic.
- Removal of dissolved haloforms generally requires aeration, which also removes substantial quantities of the chlorine.
- The production of haloforms in drinking water as a result of the reaction between organic carbon compounds and hypochlorous acid is a serious drinking water quality issue.

Origin

1930s: from halogen, on the pattern of chloroform.
