Glycolamide rotational transitions
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
Glycolamide is a glycine isomer and also one of the simplest derivatives of acetamide (one hydrogen atom replaced with a hydroxyl group), which is a known interstellar molecule.
Description
In this context, the aim of our work is to provide direct experimental frequencies of the ground vibrational state of glycolamide in the centimeter-, millimeter- and submillimeter wavelength regions in order to enable its identification in the interstellar medium.
We employed a battery of state-of-the-art rotational spectroscopic techniques in the frequency and time domain to measure its frequencies. We used the spectral line survey named EMoCA (Exploring Molecular Complexity with ALMA) that was performed toward the star forming region Sgr B2(N) with ALMA to search for glycolamide in space. We also searched for glycolamide toward Sgr B2(N) with the Effelsberg radio telescope.

The astronomical spectra were analyzed under the local thermodynamic equilibrium approximation.We used the gas-grain chemical kinetics mode MAGICKAL to interpret the results of the astronomical observations. About 1500 transitions have been newly assigned up to 460GHz to the most stable conformer, and a precise set of spectroscopic constants was determined. Spectral features of glycolamide were then searched for in the prominent hot molecular core Sgr B2(N2).
We report the non-detection of glycolamide toward this source with an abundance at least six and five times lower than that of acetamide and glycolaldehyde, respectively. Our astrochemical model suggests that glycolamide may be present in this source at a level just below the upper limit derived from the EMoCA survey. We could also not detect the molecule in the region s extended molecular envelope probed with the Effelsberg telescope.
We find an upper limit to its column density that is similar to the column densities obtained earlier for acetamide and glycolaldehyde with theGreen Bank Telescope.
