Scientific paper

We present preliminary results of an unbiased spectral survey at 1 mm of
the oxygen-rich supergiant, VY CMa. A number of exotic molecules have
been detected, including NaCl and PO, and a relatively rich organic
chemistry is observed. Results of the survey will be compared with
carbon-rich stars.
