Context. Little is known about the chemistry of isocyanates (compounds with the functional
group RN= C= O) in the interstellar medium (ISM), as only four of them have been detected …

An exhaustive chemical characterization of dense cores is mandatory to our understanding
of chemical composition changes from a starless to a protostellar stage. However, only a few …

The recent analysis of the composition of the frozen surface of comet 67P/Churyumov-
Gerasimenko has revealed a significant number of complex organic molecules. Methyl …

We report the first laboratory and interstellar detection of the α-cyano vinyl radical (H 2
CCCN). This species was produced in the laboratory by an electric discharge of a gas …

Complex nitriles, such as HC 3 N, and CH 3 CN, are observed in a wide variety of
astrophysical environments, including at relatively high abundances in photon-dominated …

Context. We wish to improve our understanding of the Orion central star formation region
(Orion-KL) and disentangle its complexity. Aims. We collected data with ALMA during cycle 2 …

The reaction between cyano radicals (CN, X2Σ+) and cyanoethene (C2H3CN) has been
investigated by a combined approach coupling crossed molecular beam (CMB) experiments …

The reaction of electronically excited nitrogen atoms, N (2D), with vinyl cyanide, CH2CHCN,
has been investigated under single-collision conditions by the crossed molecular beam …

We report an astronomical detection of HC 4 NC for the first time in the interstellar medium
with the Green Bank Telescope toward the TMC-1 molecular cloud with a minimum …

The microwave spectrum of 2, 4-dimethylthiazole was recorded using a pulsed molecular jet
Fourier-transform microwave spectrometer operating in the frequency range from 2.0 to 26.5 …
