N-methylformamide, CH3NHCHO, may be an important molecule for interstellar pre-biotic chemistry because it contains a peptide bond. The rotational spectrum of the most stable trans conformer CH3NHCHO is complicated by strong torsion-rotation interaction due to low barrier methyl torsion. We use two absorption spectrometers in Kharkiv and Lille measure spectra over 45--630 GHz. analysis carried out using Rho-axis method RAM36 code. search N-methylformamide toward hot molecular core Sgr B2(N2)...

Two new spectrometers based on the direct digital frequency synthesizers are presented. The instruments characterized by a high rate (up to 100 GHz/hr) of molecular spectrum recording with accuracy measuring transition frequencies (the measurement error for isolated spectral lines lies within ±0.002 MHz provided that signal-to-noise ratio is 50 or greater). Frequency modulation radiation source guarantees stability and determinancy frequency-modulated signal parameters makes it possible...

We obtained very accurate spectroscopic constants comprehensive laboratory rotational spectra. These can used predict transition frequencies that were not measured precisely.
Context. Recent experimental works have studied the possible formation of hydroxyacetonitrile on astrophysical grains. It was formed from hydrogen cyanide (HCN) and formaldehyde (H 2 CO) in presence water under interstellar medium conditions. Because these precursor molecules are abundant, is an excellent target for detection. Aims. Previous studies rotational spectra were limited to 40 GHz, resulting inaccurate line list when predicted up millimeter-wave range. We measured analyzed its 600...
