Abstract
We have obtained column densities for HCO+, HCO, HCS+, C3H2, HC5N, SiO, OCS, HCOOH, CH3CH2OH, and CH3CCH toward Sgr A. The fractional abundance of SiO relative to molecular hydrogen in Sgr A is comparable to that for the Orion plateau, approximately 10(-7)-10(-8), which may be a typical value for hot clouds. The abundances of HCO, CH3CH2OH and CH3CCH all appear to be enhanced relative to other molecular clouds such as Sgr B2.Entities:
