The first report on the detection of [[ism:glycolaldehyd|hydroxyethanal]], CH<sub>2</sub>OHCHO, aka glycolaldehyde, in the interstellar medium was met with great enthusiasm as this molecule represents a more complex precursor to sugars than the ubiquitous methanal, H<sub>2</sub>CO, aka formaldehyde. Very recently, there has been a report on the detection of 1,3-dihydroxypropanone in Sgr B2(N-LMH):\\ | The first report on the detection of [[molecules:ism:glycolaldehyd|hydroxyethanal]], CH<sub>2</sub>OHCHO, aka glycolaldehyde, in the interstellar medium was met with great enthusiasm as this molecule represents a more complex precursor to sugars than the ubiquitous methanal, H<sub>2</sub>CO, aka formaldehyde.
