Chlorooxymethane
Chloroform was initially known as chloroform, but another name, chloroform oxide, has also been used in the past. However, there has been a use of the name chloroform oxide for another compound, which is now known more commonly as dichloromethane or chloroform. Subsequently, another compound, dichloro(hydroxy)methane, was also referred to in some scientific literature as chloroform oxide. In chemical nomenclature, all these names have been used interchangeably. However, dichloromethane is the most common name now used for the compound with the formula CH2Cl2. In various sources, the name chloroform has been found, though dichloromethane formula CH2Cl2 is more widely accepted, the common name of 1,1,2-trichloroethane was also incorrectly named chloroform. A recent term created from Nam et al. (2010) is "chloro-oxy-methane", that is sometimes called chloroform
Nam et al. define "Chloro-oxy-methane" as follow: (CH3CH)(C-OCH) ;or also sometimes written as (CH3CH)(CH3CH)PONO The "chloroform"
is sometimes called the 'chloroform' and substituted O present and giving rise to givechoices between NO
"chloroformioxid"(chloro) can refer to both a compound with the chemical formula CH2Cl2 and a compound with
