reported on the
Detection of HNCCC in TMC-1
Astrophys. J. 396, L49 (1992).
The Nobeyama 45 m telescope was used to detect the J = 3 – 2, 4 – 3, and 5 – 4 transitions near 28.0, 37.3, and 46.7 GHz. The HCCNC isomer was found only slightly earlier, whereas the HC3N isomer had been known for a considerable time.

Observations of HCCNC and HNCCC in IRC+10216
Astrophys. Space Sci. 251, 199 (1997).
The NRAO 12 m telescope was used to detect the J = 11 – 10 transition near 102.7 GHz. The HCCNC to HNC3 ratio is about 8, similar to that in TMC-1. Because of only one detected line, this report should be viewed with some caution.

used the IRAM 30 m telescope for
High Spectral Resolution Observations of HNC<sub>3</sub> and HCCNC in the L1544 Pre-stellar Core
Mon. Not. R. Astron. Soc. 474, L76 (2018).
The J = 8 – 7, 9 – 8, and 10 – 9 transitions were detected near 74.7, 84.0, and 93.4 GHz. The column density is only slightly smaller than that in TMC-1, similar to HCCNC, even though HC3N is less abundant by about one order of magnitide in L1544 compared to TMC-1.

reported on the
Discovery of HC<sub>4</sub>NC in TMC-1: A study of the isomers of HC<sub>3</sub>N, HC<sub>5</sub>N, and HC<sub>7</sub>N
Astron. Astrophys. 642, Art. No. L8 (2020).
The authors report the detection of DNC3. The observations were obtained with the Yebes 40m radio telescope in the course of a line survey covering 31.0–50.3 GHz.
