Johann Wolfgang Döbereiner in earlier attempts of classification, classified metals into small groups of 3 elements each, called triads. 

He made these triads in order to put elements with similar physical properties together. In a triad, usually, the mass of the middle element was an average of the masses of the heaviest and lightest elements of the triad. 

In Cl (35.5), Br (79.9), and I (126.9), Br has an average mass of Cl and I. So, it depicts a Doberiener’s triad. Fluorine does not fit in this triad.

Hence, Fluorine is an element that does not fit in Dobereiner’s triad.
