In Edit Mode select the head only of bone 1, then press Shift+S > Cursor to Selected, then select the tail only of bone 2 and presse Shift+S > Selection to Cursor.

Then select the bone 1, Shift select the bone 2, and press Ctrl+P > Connected. Different bone groups are not a problem because they are referred to Pose Mode, not Edit Mode.

  1. To do that, go to Edit Mode and select the tail of the bone to which you want the disconnected bone to be connected, and press Shift+S to set 3D cursor to tail.

    set cursor to tail of bone

  2. Now select the head of disconnected bone, press Shift+S to set the selection to 3D cursor. This will copy the transformations of child bone's tail to the head of parent bone.

    set selection to 3D cursor

  3. At last just select the child bone press Shift and select parent bone, Then press Ctrl+P to connect bones.

    connect the child bone to parent bone
