Selected unblended or slightly blended transitions of methyl acetate, CH₃C(O)OCH₃, identified toward G+0.693, which were used to derive the LTE physical parameters of the molecule (see text; listed in Table A.1). The red line shows the best LTE fit of CH₃C(O)OCH₃, while the blue line represents the combined emission of all molecules identified in the survey (observed spectra are shown as gray histograms). The symmetry state of the detected transitions is shown at the bottom of each panel (full list of quantum numbers listed in Table A.1). The * symbol indicates that there are various transitions in the same panel, each comprising the same E₃/E₄/E₁ symmetry states. The transitions are sorted by decreasing intensity. The molecular structure of CH₃C(O)OCH₃ is also shown (C atoms in gray, O atoms in red, and H atoms in white).
