Microwave spectrum of 2-pentynenitrile (C2H5CCCN)

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

New radiotelescopes, such as the very sensitive ALMA, will enable the detection of interstellar molecules in much lower concentrations than previously possible.

Description

A successful identification of an interstellar molecule requires that laboratory microwave and millimeter-wave spectra are investigated. Several cyanopolyynes and alkynylcarbonitriles have already been detected in the interstellar medium (ISM).

Cyanoacetylene (HCCCN) is abundant in the ISM and its methyl derivative, 2-butynenitrile (CH3CCCN), is also present. The next derivative, ethyl cyanoacetylene, (2-pentynenitrile C_2_H_5_CCCN) may also be present in interstellar space. We report the rotational spectrum of the ethyl cyanoacetylene (C_2_H_5_CCCN).

This is hoped to facilitate identifying gaseous ethyl cyanoacetylene in the ISM.
