The authors have searched for CO (J = 2→1) emission at 47 positions in the direction of southern H II regions, mainly taken from the RCW-catalogue. The observations are compared with CO results obtained by other workers and briefly discussed. There seems to be no significant difference between the TA*(J = 2→1) and TA*(J = 1→0) transitions. In general no systematic velocity difference between the molecular and ionized gas is found. Three objects were observed in more detail: G265.1+1.5 (RCW 36), G327.3-0.6, and G35.2-1.8 (W 48). The source G327.3-0.6, associated with RCW 97, is a relatively small CO cloud, showing the characteristics of bipolar outflow. The CO emission associated with W 48 is complex; there is evidence for self absorption. In the direction of RCW 36 there are at least two clouds or cloud components along the line of sight.
