Tetrahalomethanes are fully halogenated methane derivatives of general formula CF k Cl l Br m I n At p, where: + + + + = Tetrahalomethanes are on the border of inorganic and organic chemistry, thus they can be assigned both inorganic and organic names by IUPAC: tetrafluoromethane - carbon tetrafluoride, tetraiodomethane - carbon tetraiodide, dichlorodifluoromethane - carbon dichloride difluoride.
