Emission at 113 GHz from the CN molecule has been searched for in a large number of interstellar regions, primarily dark dust clouds. Lines have been detected in four dark clouds, the first time CN has been observed in this type of object. Comparative CO observations were also performed. The CN/CO abundance ratio varies from cloud to cloud, even among objects which are apparently otherwise similar. This variation suggests that the chemistry of dark clouds may be time-dependent. A previously reported detection of CN emission from a diffuse cloud was not confirmed. Several black clouds and circumstellar clouds were reobserved to obtain better line parameters and to serve as comparative interstellar chemical systems.
