Bromochlorofluoroiodomethane is a hypothetical haloalkane with all four halogen substituents present in it.[1]
This compound can be seen as a methane molecule, whose four hydrogen atoms are each replaced with a different halogen atom. As the mirror images of this molecule are not superimposable, the molecule has two enantiomers. As one of the simplest such molecules, it is often cited as the prototypical chiral compound.[2]
