Dibromofluoromethane is a mixed halomethane. It is soluble in alcohol, acetone, benzene and chloroform.

It can be used to prepare bromofluoromethane by reductive debromination with organotin hydride as tributyltin hydride.^[1]

Its ozone depletion potential (ODP) is 1.0 and it is included in list of Class I Ozone-Depleting Substances.
