Abstract: The largest finite subgroup of O(4) is the noncrystallographic Coxeter group $W(H_4)$ of order 14400. Its derived subgroup is the largest finite subgroup $W(H_4)/Z_2$ of SO(4) of order 7200. Moreover, up to conjugacy, it has five non-normal maximal subgroups of orders 144, two 240, 400 and 576. Two groups $[W(H_2)imesW(H_2)]imes{Z}_4$ and $W(H_3)imes{Z}_2$ possess noncrystallographic structures with orders 400 and 240 respectively. The groups of orders 144, 240 and 576 are the extensions of the Weyl groups of the root systems of $SU(3)imesSU(3)$%, SU(5) and SO(8) respectively. We represent the maximal subgroups of $\mathrm{\%}W(H_4)$ with sets of quaternion pairs acting on the quaternionic root systems.
