Search for Interstellar Furan and lmidazole
Abstract
Results are reported of an unsuccessful 6-cm search for the hetrocyclic carbon ring molecules furan and imidazole. Upper limits in brightness temperature of 0.25 K or less are found for furan in 11 galactic sources, and of less than 0.1 K for imidazole in Sgr A and Sgr B2.
