Although N-nitrosamines (I) have been known since the nine­ teenth century, it was not until quite recently that they became the subject of intensive investigations. This renewed interest was spurred i n large part by the report of Magee and Barnes (1) on the carcinogenicity of these compounds. Since then, research into the chemistry and b i o l o g i c a l properties of N-nitrosamines has ac­ celerated. This b r i e f survey is intended to serve both as a sum­ mary of some of the frontiers i n this area and as an introduction to the chemistry of N-nitrosamines discussed i n the remaining chap­ ters of t h i s Volume. N-Nitrosamines have the nitroso group attached d i r e c t l y to the amine nitrogen (2-7). As with C-nitroso compounds however, i n general only those N-nitrosamines where neither R nor R' is a hy­ drogen atom, have any existence; when one of the substituents i s a hydrogen, the equilibrium favors the tautomeric diazoic acid (A) (8). There are reported cases of stable primary N-nitrosamines;
