Many halogen containingorganic compounds occur in nature and some ofthese are clinically useful. These classes of compoundsfind wide applications in industry as well as in day-to-day life. They are used as solvents for relativelynon-polar compounds and as starting materials forthe synthesis of wide range of organic compounds.Chlorine containing antibiotic, chloramphenicol,produced by microorganisms is very effective for thetreatment of typhoid fever. Our body produces iodinecontaining hormone, thyroxine, the deficiency of whichcauses a disease called goiter. Synthetic halogencompounds, viz. chloroquine is used for the treatmentof malaria; halothane is used as an anaestheticduring surgery.
