Nitroso Group
( \newcommand{\kernel}{\mathrm{null}\,}\)
The following group in an organic molecule is called the nitroso group.
eg:
The nitrosyl group is stable only if there are no alpha hydrogens to it. Thus, 1 is unstable, and 2 and 3 are stable. 1 exists mostly as the tautomer (4), which is an oxime.
