| through six rotational transitions between 32.6 and 46.3 GHz having 11 ≤ //J// ≤ 17 with good to reasonable signal-to-noise ratios. A rotational tempertaure of 6.0 ± 0.5K was derived. The column density ratios are about 45 : 1 for HNC<sub>3</sub> : HNC<sub>5</sub> and about 5100 : 10 : 1 for HC<sub>5</sub>N : HC<sub>4</sub>NC : HNC<sub>5</sub>.\\ | Dicyanomethane or malononitrile was identified through four rotational transitions with modest S/N and partially resolved <sup>14</sup>N HFS splitting and 4 ≤ //J// ≤ 10 and //K<sub>a</sub>// ≤ 1. Other lines are heavily blended or have a lower S/N. //Z//-1,2-Dicyanoethene or maleonitrile was identified through four rotational transitions with modest S/N of which one displayed partially resolved <sup>14</sup>N HFS splitting; one HFS line of another transition is shown as are some blended lines. The quantum numbers were 7 ≤ //J// ≤ 11 and //K<sub>a</sub>// ≤ 1. The abundance ratio of dicyanomethane to //Z//-1,2-dicyanoethene is about 3.5. Related molecules with one CN replaced by CCH are more abundant by varying degrees, consistent with a CCH to CN ration in TMC-1 of about 10.\\ |
