Carbon – Chain Molecules � Interstellar �≒ molecules > 180 molecules 40% : Carbon-chain molecules � Mainly exist in cold dark clouds � Recently, → they have been detected in hot corinos
Cyanopolyynes (HC 2 n+1 N) �One of the representative carbon- chain molecules �They have been detected in the interstellar medium since 1970 s H C C C N

13 C Isotopic Fractionation [H 13 CCCCCN] : [HC 13 CCCCN] : [HCC 13 CCCN] : [HCCC 13 CCN] : [HCCCC 13 CN] = 1. 00 : 0. 97 : 1. 03 : 1. 05 : 1. 16 (± 0. 19) (1σ) No significant differences in abundances among the five 13 C isotopologues
Formation Pathways Leading to HC 5 N [H 13 CCCN] : [HC 13 CCN] : [HCC 13 CN] = 1. 0 : 1. 4 (Takano et al. (1998)) If HC 5 N is formed by the reactions involving CN HCCCC 13 CN is more abundant than the other 13 C isotopologues by 1. 4
Rejected Pathways involving CN HC 4 H + CN → HC 5 N + H Growth of the carbon chain of HC 3 N Ex. HC 3 N + C 2 H →HC 5 N + H e- HC 3 N + C 2 Hm+ → HC 5 N + m. H
Reasons for our conclusion All carbon atoms in HC 5 N are originated from C 5 Hm+ There is no mechanisms for 13 C concentration of specific carbon atom All 13 C isotopologues of HC 5 N have almost same abundances

Cyanopolyynes in Hot Cores �Green et al. (2014) have been detected HC 5 N towards 35 hot cores �We have carried out observations of HC 5 N, HC 7 N, and other carbon-chain molecules toward G 28. 28 -0. 36
Compare the 14 N/15 N Ratios of the Solar System Materials Solar wind 440 Earth 272 Meteorites, Comets 100 - 180 When and How 15 N isotopic fractionation does occur? Our results suggest that concentration of 15 N in CN occur in the dark cloud stage How is inherited? Taniguchi et al. (ALMA Proposal)
Chemistry in Hot Cores Work with Saito-san, Ohishi-san, Hirota-san, Ozeki-san We aim to establish new carbon-chain chemistry in hot cores (My Doctor’s thesis) Submitted proposals for GBT and ALMA Through these studies, I would like to reveal the formation mechanisms of complex organic molecules
