In this paper, we report the observation of three potential pre-biotic molecules, namely, isocyanic acid (HNCO), formamide (NH2CHO), and methyl isocyanate (CH3NCO), which contain peptide-like bonds ...

Abstract: Detection of methyl isocyanate (CH3NCO) in a solar-typeprotostar: We report the detection of the prebiotic molecule CH3NCO in a solar-type protostar, IRAS16293-2422 B. A significant ...

Methyl isocyanate contains carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen and oxygen atoms in the chemical configuration CH3NCO. This very toxic substance was the main cause of death following the tragic Bhopal ...

Researchers from Queen Mary University of London (QMUL) are part of a team that have for the first time detected methyl isocyanate (or CH3NCO) in a solar-type protostar, the kind from which our Sun ...

The CH3NCO spectra also appear to exhibit two velocities components near VLSR ~ 62 and 73 km s−1, both with ΔV1/2 ~ 10 km s−1 – typical of molecules such as CH₂CHCN, HNCO ...
