Chloroform (CAS NO.67-66-3) was discovered in July, 1831 by the American physician Samuel Guthrie,and independently a few months later by the French chemist Eugène Soubeiran and Justus von Liebig in Germany, all of them using variations of the haloform reaction. Soubeiran produced it through the action of chlorine bleach powder on acetone as well as ethanol. It was named and chemically characterised in 1834 by Jean-Baptiste Dumas.
The Chloroform has the cas register number 67-66-3. This is a kind of colorless liquid, with high refractive index and special sweet odour. Besides it is complete soluble in ethanol, ethyl ether, benzene, petroleum ether, carbon tetrachloride, carbon disulfide and essential oil while slightly soluble in water.

Production method of Chloroform is as below: allylamine could react with 1,1,1,3,3-pentachloro-butan-2-one to produce N-allyl-2,2-dichloro-propionamide and Chloroform, with the following condition: solvent: hexane; reaction time: 30 min; yield: 93.5%.
Use of Chloroform: Chloroform reacts with 1,1-diacetoxy-butane to produce 1,1,1-trichloro-pentan-2-ol, with the following condition: reagent: aq. NaOH; catalytic agent: benzyltriethyammonium chloride ; reaction time: 6 hours; reaction tem.: 40 - 45 ℃; yield: 61%.
As to its usage, it is widely applied in many ways. It could be used in producing Freon22, solvent and anesthetic in pharmaceutics, solvent of rubber, resin, and lipidic; It could be used in organic synthesis material, and also as solvent and extractant; in antibiotic, spice, resin, and so on; It could mix with carbon tetrachloride to produce ice-free fireproofing liquid and also in gun propellant of smolke agent, fumigant of frumentaceous, and standard liquid of base measuring temperature.
While dealing with this chemical, you should be very cautious. For one thing, this chemical is irritant to eyes, respiratory system and skin; For another thing, it is harmful to our health. It could have danger of serious damage to health by prolonged exposure through inhalation and if swallowed, and repeated exposure may cause skin dryness or cracking. Then, it is toxic and it has the danger of very serious irreversible effects through inhalation, in contact with skin and if swallowed; It may cause cancer and heritable genetic damage. Lastly, it is highly flammable: It may catch fire in contact with air, only needing brief contact with an ignition source; It has a very low flash point or evolve highly flammable gases in contact with water; Vapours may cause drowsiness and dizziness
Therefore, you should take the following instructions. Firstly, wear suitable protective clothing, gloves and eye/face protection and keep away from sources of ignition - No smoking. In case of contacting with eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical advice; In case of accident or if you feel unwell, seek medical advice immediately (show the label where possible). Secondly, be carful while keeping. Keep container tightly closed and in a well-ventilated place. Thirdly, do not breathe gas/fumes/vapour/spray (appropriate wording to be specified by the manufacturer), and avoid exposure - obtain special instructions before use; Besides. take precautionary measures against static discharges.
Additionally, the following datas could be converted into the molecular structure:
(1)SMILES:ClC(Cl)Cl
(2)InChI:InChI=1/CHCl3/c2-1(3)4/h1H
