The //J// + 1 → //J// transitions with //J// = 43, 44, and 45 of C<sub>5</sub>S were identified in the course of a 3 mm line survey with the IRAM 30 m telescope near 81.2, 83.0, and 84.9 GHz. The first transition is blended. The identification rests to a considerable amount on an earlier report detailed below that is deemed to be not secure. Therefore, we suggest to view the identification of C<sub>5</sub>S in space with some caution. The almost similar column densities between two carbon chain molecules, here C<sub>5</sub>S and C<sub>3</sub>S, are very unusual, though not unprecedented. | The //J// + 1 → //J// transitions with //J// = 43, 44, and 45 of C<sub>5</sub>S were identified in the course of a 3 mm line survey with the IRAM 30 m telescope near 81.2, 83.0, and 84.9 GHz.

A line observed with the NRAO 43 m telecope near 24.0 GHz in the course of a molecular line survey was assigned to the //J// = 13 – 12 transition of C<sub>5</sub>S. The authors state in the abstract: "Assuming the observed feature is due to C<sub>5</sub>S, we find that //N//(C<sub>5</sub>S)///N//(C<sub>3</sub>S) ≈ 0.5." Confirmation of this finding or identification of further transitions at shorter wavelengths will be useful. | A line observed with the NRAO 43 m telecope near 24.0 GHz in the course of a molecular line survey was assigned to the //J// = 13 – 12 transition of C<sub>5</sub>S.

| C<sub>4</sub>S was identified through for fine structure transitions with //N"// = 9 to 12 and //J// = //N// + 1 and with moderate to good signal-to-noise ratio (one slightly blended, one severely blended) in the course of a molecular line survey of the prototypical cold dark molecular cloud TMC-1 carried out with the Yebes 40 m radio telescope between 32.8 and 49.2 GHz. The column density of C<sub>4</sub>S is slightly lower than that of C<sub>5</sub>S, and about factors of 340 and 1350 lower than those of C<sub>3</sub>S and C<sub>2</sub>S, respectively. |
