Polar ordering has been induced by pressure in solid chloroform (trichloromethane), CHCl3, and bromoform (tribromomethane), CHBr3, obtained by isochoric and isothermal freezing in a diamond anvil cell. Structures of these new polymorphs have been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, CHCl3
