An example of a trihalide is [[chloroform]]. The [[trihalomethane]]s are the simplest trihalides, because only one [[hydrogen]] is connected to the carbon. The [[1,1,1-Trichloroethane]] is one of the trihalides of ethane. ==See also== *[[Fluoroform]] *[[Bromoform]] *[[Iodoform]] [[Category:Functional groups]]
