Abstract: | We say that groups, which are isomorphic to inner mapping groups of finite loops, are loop capable. Let p and q be distinct prime numbers, S a nonabelian group of order pq, and C a finite nontrivial cyclic group such that gcd (|S|, |C|) = 1. We show that the group S × C is not loop capable. |
