In industry, chloroform is produced by chlorination of methane or chloromethane. The reaction mixture is heated to a temperature of 400-500 °C. In this case, a series of chemical reactions take place. This also happens when the mixture is illuminated with ultraviolet light.

The result of the process is a mixture consisting of methyl chloride, dichloromethane, chloroform and carbon tetrachloride. The separation of substances is carried out by distillation. In the laboratory, chloroform can be obtained by the reaction between acetone or ethanol and bleach.
