The halogens found in organic molecules are chlorine, bromine, fluorine, and iodine.Some texts refer to this class of compounds as halogenoalkanes or alkyl halides.This text will frequently use both haloalkane and alkyl halide, so it's important to remember that they are the same thing.he halogens found in organic molecules are chlorine, bromine, fluorine, and iodine.
