C-cyanomethanimine (HNCHCN), existing in the two $Z$ and $E$ isomeric forms, is a key prebiotic molecule, but, so far, only the $E$ isomer has been detected toward the massive star-forming region. Sagittarius B2(N) using transitions in the radio wavelength domain. With the aim of detecting HNCHCN in Sun-like-star forming regions, the laboratory investigation of its rotational spectrum has been extended to the millimeter-/submillimeter-wave (mm-/submm-) spectral window in which several unbiased spectral surveys have been already carried out. High-resolution laboratory measurements of the rotational spectrum of C-cyanomethanimine were carried out in the 100-420 GHz range using a frequency-modulation absorption spectrometer. We then searched for the C-cyanomethanimine spectral features in the mm-wave range using the high-sensitivity and unbiased spectral surveys obtained with the IRAM 30-m antenna in the ASAI context, the earliest stages of star formation from starless to evolved Class I objects being sampled. For both the $Z$ and $E$ isomers, the spectroscopic work has led to an improved and extended knowledge of the spectroscopic parameters, thus providing accurate predictions of the rotational signatures up to $sim$700 GHz. So far, no C-cyanomethanimine emission has been detected toward the ASAI targets, and upper limits of the column density of $sim$ 10$^{11}$--10$^{12}$ cm$^{-2}$ could only be derived. Consequently, the C-cyanomethanimine abundances have to be less than a few 10$^{-10}$ for starless and hot-corinos. A less stringent constraint, $leq$ 10$^{-9}$, is obtained for shocks sites. The combination of the upper limits of the abundances of C-cyanomethanimine together with accurate laboratory frequencies up to $sim$ 700 GHz poses the basis for future higher sensitivity searches around Sun-like-star forming regions.

We report on the detection of hydromagnesium isocyanide, HMgNC, in the laboratory and in the carbon rich evolved star IRC+10216. The J=1-0 and J=2-1 lines were observed in our microwave laboratory equipment in Valladolid with a spectral accuracy of 3
,KHz. The hyperfine structure produced by the Nitrogen atom was resolved for both transitions. The derived rotational constants from the laboratory data are $B_0$=5481.4333(6),MHz, $D_0$=2.90(8),KHz, and $eQq(N)$=-2.200(2),MHz. The predicted frequencies for the rotational transitions of HMgNC in the millimeter domain have an accuracy of 0.2-0.7,MHz. Four rotational lines of this species, J=8-7, J=10-9, J=12-11 and J=13-12, have been detected towards IRC+10216. The differences between observed and calculated frequencies are $<$0.5,MHz. The rotational constants derived from space frequencies are $B_0$=5481.49(3),MHz and $D_0$=3.2(1),KHz, i.e., identical to the laboratory ones. A merged fit to the laboratory and space frequencies provides $B_0$=5481.4336(4),MHz and $D_0$=2.94(5),KHz. We have derived a column density for HMgNC of (6$pm$2)$times10^{11}$,cm$^{-2}$. From the observed line profiles the molecule have to be produced produced in the layer where other metal-isocyanides have been already found in this source. The abundance ratio between MgNC and its hydrogenated variety, HMgNC, is $simeq$20.
For all the amides detected in the interstellar medium (ISM), the corresponding nitriles or isonitriles have also been detected in the ISM, some of which have relatively high abundances. Among the abundant nitriles for which the corresponding amide h
as not yet been detected is cyanoacetylene (HCCCN), whose amide counterpart is propiolamide (HCCC(O)NH$_2$). With the aim of supporting searches for this amide in the ISM, we provide a complete rotational study of propiolamide from 6 GHz to 440 GHz using rotational spectroscopic techniques in the frequency and time domain. We identified and measured more than 5500 distinct frequency lines of propiolamide and obtained accurate sets of spectroscopic parameters for the ground state and the three low-lying excited vibrational states. We used the ReMoCA spectral line survey performed with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array toward the star-forming region Sgr B2(N) to search for propiolamide. We report the nondetection of propiolamide toward the hot cores Sgr B2(N1S) and Sgr B2(N2). We find that propiolamide is at least 50 and 13 times less abundant than acetamide in Sgr B2(N1S) and Sgr B2(N2), respectively, indicating that the abundance difference between both amides is more pronounced by at least a factor of 8 and 2, respectively, than for their corresponding nitriles. Although propiolamide has yet to be included in astrochemical modeling networks, the observed upper limit to the ratio of propiolamide to acetamide seems consistent with the ratios of related species as determined from past simulations.
The saturated n-propyl cyanide was recently detected in Sagittarius B2(N). The next larger unbranched alkyl cyanide is n-butyl cyanide. We provide accurate rest frequency predictions beyond the millimeter wave range to search for this molecule in the
Galactic center source Sagittarius B2(N) and facilitate its detection in space. We investigated the laboratory rotational spectrum of $n$-butyl cyanide between 75 GHz and 348 GHz. We searched for emission lines produced by the molecule in our sensitive IRAM 30 m molecular line survey of Sagittarius B2(N). We identified more than one thousand rotational transitions in the laboratory for each of the three conformers for which limited data had been obtained previously in a molecular beam microwave study. The quantum number range was greatly extended to J ~ 120 or more and Ka > 35, resulting in accurate spectroscopic parameters and accurate rest frequency calculations up to about 500 GHz for strong to moderately weak transitions of the two lower energy conformers. Upper limits to the column densities of N <= 3 x 10E15 cm-2 and 8 x 10E15 cm-2 were derived towards Sagittarius B2(N) for the two lower energy conformers, anti-anti and gauche-anti, respectively. Our present data will be helpful for identifying n-butyl cyanide at millimeter or longer wavelengths with radio telescope arrays such as ALMA, NOEMA, or EVLA. In particular, its detection in Sagittarius B2(N) with ALMA seems feasible.
Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) are considered as a major constituent of interstellar dust. They have been proposed as the carriers of the Aromatic Infrared Bands (AIBs) observed in emission in the mid-IR. They likely have a significant contr
ibution to various features of the extinction curve such as the 220 nm bump,the far-UV rise and the diffuse interstellar bands. Emission bands are also expected in the far-IR, which are better fingerprints of molecular identity than the AIBs. They will be searched for with the Herschel Space Observatory. Rotational emission is also expected in the mm range for those molecules which carry significant dipole moments. Despite spectroscopic studies in the laboratory, no individual PAH species could be identified. This emphasises the need for an investigation on where interstellar PAHs come from and how they evolve due to environmental conditions: ionisation and dissociation upon UV irradiation, interactions with electrons, gas and dust. There is also evidence for PAH species to contribute to the depletion of heavy atoms from the gas phase, in particular Si and Fe. This paper illustrates how laboratory work can be inspired from observations. In particular there is a need for understanding the chemical properties of PAHs and PAH-related species, including very small grains, in physical conditions that mimic those found in interstellar space. This motivates a joint effort between astrophysicists, physicists and chemists. Such interdisciplinary studies are currently performed, taking advantage of the PIRENEA set-up, a cold ion trap dedicated to astrochemistry.
Magnetism of fullerene C60 was studied by three methods of the density functional theory (DFT) calculation, laboratory experiment and astronomical observation. DFT revealed that the most stable spin state was non-magnetic one of Sz=0/2. This is contr
ary to our recent study on void induced graphene molecules of C23 and C53 to be magnetic one of Sz=2/2. Two graphene molecules combined model suggested that two up-spin at every carbon pentagon ring may cancel each other to bring Sz=0/2. Similar cancelation may occur on C60. Molecular vibrational infrared spectrum of C60 show four major bands, which coincide with gas-phase laboratory experiment, also with astronomically observed one of carbon rich planetary nebula Tc1 and Lin49. However, there remain many unidentified bands on astronomical one. We supposed multiple voids on graphene sheet, which may create both C60 and complex graphene molecules. It was revealed that spectrum of two voids induced graphene molecule coincident well with major astronomical bands. Simple sum of C60 and graphene molecules could successfully reproduce astronomical bands in detail.
