Iodoform is the organoiodine compound with the formula CHI₃. A pale yellow, crystalline, volatile substance, it has a penetrating odor (in older chemistry texts, the smell is sometimes referred to as the smell of hospitals) and, analogous to chloroform, sweetish taste. It is occasionally used as a disinfectant. It is sometimes also referred to as carbon triiodide (which is not strictly correct, as this compound also contains hydrogen) or methyl triiodide (which is somewhat ambiguous as that name could also refer to the methylated triiodide ion, CH₃I₃).

Iodoform (Summenformel CHI₃) ist eine gelbe, safranartig riechende chemische Verbindung aus Kohlenstoff, Wasserstoff und Iod. Es handelt sich um einen so genannten Halogenkohlenwasserstoff.

L’iodoforme était autrefois l’antiseptique par excellence et c’est cette odeur qui caractérisait les cabinets médicaux.
