Chromium(II) oxide (CrO) is an inorganic compound composed of chromium and oxygen.[1] It is a black powder that crystallises in the rock salt structure.[2] Hypophosphites may reduce chromium(III) oxide to chromium(II) oxide:

H3PO2 \+ 2 Cr2O3 → 4 CrO + H3PO4

It is readily oxidized by the atmosphere. CrO is basic, while CrO
3 is acidic, and Cr

3 is amphoteric.[3]

CrO occurs in the spectra of luminous red novae, which occur when two stars collide. It is not known why red novae are the only objects that feature this molecule; one possible explanation is an as-yet-unknown nucleosynthesis process.[4]
