Methyl mercaptan (CH₃SH) has been identified in Sgr B2 from observations of six lines in its millimeter-wave spectrum. The CH₃SH rotational temperature and column density in Sgr B2 are T_rot = 9±3 K and N = 1.5±0.2×10¹⁴ /cm², respectively. The CH₃SH/CH₃OH ratio is apparently not greatly different from the cosmic S/O ratio.
