| 4-nitrosodimethylaniline | A member of the class of dimethylanilines that is N,N-dimethylaniline having a nitroso group at the 4-position. | N,N-dimethyl-4-nitrosoaniline |
| 4-nitrososulfamethoxazole | A sulfonamide compound having a 4-nitrosophenyl group attached to the sulfur atom and a 1,2-oxazol-3-yl group attached to the nitrogen atom. | nitrososulfamethoxazole |
| 6-(cyclohexylamino)-3-methyl-5-nitroso-1H-pyrimidine-2,4-dione | | 6-(cyclohexylamino)-3-methyl-5-nitroso-1H-pyrimidine-2,4-dione |
| dibutylnitrosamine | | N-Nitrosodi-n-butylamine |
| ethyl nitrite | | Ethyl nitrite |
| methylethylnitrosamine | | N-Nitrosomethylethylamine |
| methylnitronitrosoguanidine | An N-nitroguanidine compound having nitroso and methyl substituents at the N'-position | N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine |
| n-butyl nitrite | | Butyl nitrite |
| n-nitroso-n-methylvinylamine | | N-Nitrosomethylvinylamine |
| n-nitroso(di-n-propyl)amine | | N-Nitrosodi-n-propylamine |

| nitrosobenzene | A nitroso compound that is the nitroso derivative of benzene; a diamagnetic hybrid of singlet O2 and azobenzene. | nitrosobenzene |
| nitrosocarbaryl | A nitroso compound that is carbaryl in which the amino hydrogen is substituted by a nitroso group. | nitrosocarbaryl |
| nitrosoperoxycarbonate | A carbon oxoacid that is carbonic acid in which one of the hydrogens is replaced by a nitrosoxy group. At physiological pH, nitrosoperoxycarbonic acid is highly unstable, rapidly decomposing to give CO2, NO2, and hydroxyl radicals. | nitrosoperoxycarbonic acid |
| s-nitroso-n-acetylpenicillamine | A nitroso compound that is N-acetyl-D-penicillamine in which the sulfanyl hydrogen is replaced by a nitroso group. | S-nitroso-N-acetyl-D-penicillamine |
| s-nitrosocysteinylglycine | A dipeptide resulting from the formal condensation of the carboxylic acid group of S-nitroso-L-cysteine with the amino group of glycine. | S-nitroso-L-cysteinylglycine |
| triacsin c | A nitroso compound that is N-undecylnitrous hydrazide carrying double bonds at positions 1,2,4, and 7. It is a long-chain fatty acyl CoA synthetase inhibitor and interferes with lipid metabolism by inhibiting the de novo synthesis of glycerolipids and cholesterol esters. | triacsin C |
