Scientific paper

New detections of CO emission from the Seyfert NGC 6814 and the spiral NGC 4736 have been made, and upper limits have been set on the CO emission from six other Seyferts. A comparison of integrated CO emission observed with two different beams suggests that the spatial distribution of the molecular gas differs among Seyferts. An extended disk distribution with a central source of intensity differing from galaxy to galaxy is suggested. The CO distributions are consistent with those classified as type I galaxies by Morris and Rickard (1982). No correlation is found between CO luminosity with 10 micron nuclear emission, and a tentative correlation is found between CO and 100 micron luminosity observed at similar angular resolution, as has been found for normal spirals.
