stable isomers of the chemical formula C2H4O2
GlycolAldehyde (GA)detected in the ISM
prebiotic molecule (simpliest sugar)
Acetic Acid (AA)detected in the ISM
various industrial apps (most abundant carboxylic acid): polymers, drugs, food ads, solvents
MethylFormate (MF)detected in the ISM
few industrial apps (harmful and flammable):
insecticide, drugs, refrigerant

Astrophysical interestRegions of characteristic
signals of COMs
Support to space
observation missions
(Herschel, Alma, …)
Inaccurate extrapolations
from mm-waves
Spectroscopic interestLarge amplitude motions and intermolecular modes are in the FIR
Low excitation energy = non-destructive probing
access to the dynamic, conformational and structural properties.
Why from the mm-waves to FIR regions ?

The GA spectrum: background
No FIR spectrum of GA (dimeric powder in standard conditions)
C-C torsion (1) ~ 200 cm-1 (very weak)
C-C-O bend (2) ~ 300 cm-1 (weak)
C-OH torsion (3) ~ 370 cm-1 (medium)+ hot and combination bands

The GA spectrum: new data in the FIR
(Soleil SR + IFS125HR + long pass cell)
@ Ailes beamline:
High brightness in the FIR: less scans needed
White type multipass cell: absorption length = 150 m
High sensitivity for low vapor pressure samples.
