Context: Methylacetylene and methyldiacetylene are the first members of the methylpolyynes series, CH3C{2n}H (n = 1, 2). Their astrophysical relevance has motivated this spectroscopic study. Aims: The aim of this investigation is to provide very accurate rest frequencies, as well as to improve the spectroscopic parameters available in the literature for these molecules. Methods: The Lamb-dip technique was exploited in order to record the rotational spectra of CH3CCH and CH3CCCCH at sub-Doppler resolution in the millimeter- and submillimeter-wave frequency ranges. In addition, for CH3CCH rotational transitions in the THz region were recorded at Doppler resolution. Results: We report the most accurate ground-state rotational parameters known at the moment for the main isotopic species of methylacetylene, as well as of methyldiacetylene. Conclusions: Since both molecules are known to be of astrophysical relevance, we are confident that the improvement in the accuracy of the ground-state rotational parameters as well as of the rest frequencies of rotational transitions could be useful for future observations purposes.
