Scientific paper

A survey of the distribution of long-carbon-chain molecules in interstellar clouds shows that their abundances are correlated. The various formation schemes for these molecules are discussed. It is concluded that the ion-molecule-type formation mechanisms are more promising than their competitors. They have also the advantage of making possible predictions that can be tested by observations. Acetylene (C2H2) and diacetylene (HCCCCH) may be very abundant in interstellar clouds.
