| The //J// = 2 – 1 and //J// = 3 – 2 transitions of PN near 93.980 and 140.968 GHz, respectively, were observed with ALMA in the course of a very extensive molecular line survey (84.2 to 373.2 GHz) of the central molecular zone (CMZ) of the near-by star-burst galaxy NGC 253. Both transitions were detected toward the source GMC 6 with good and fairly good signal-to-noise ratios (S/N), respectively. The //J// = 2 – 1 transition was also detected with reasonable S/N toward the source GMC 4. The two transitions detected toward GMC 6 constrain the excitation temperature to 4.4 ± 1.3 K.\\ | The //J// = 2 – 1 and //J// = 3 – 2 transitions of PN near 93.980 and 140.968 GHz, respectively, were observed with ALMA in the course of a very extensive molecular line survey (84.2 to 373.2 GHz) of the central molecular zone (CMZ) of the near-by star-burst galaxy NGC 253.

| Othe phosphorus-bearing molecules were searched for, but not detected. The PO/PN ratio was found to be < 1.3 for GMC 6, still compatible with PO/PN > 1 in Galactic sources. The PH<sub>3</sub>/PN ratio was found to be < 2.7 toward the same position.\\ | Other phosphorus-bearing molecules were searched for, but not detected.
