Myers, P.C., P. Thaddeus, and R.A. Linke, 1980: A search for interstellar pyrrole: Evidence that rings are less abundant than chains. Astrophys. J., 241, 155-157, doi:10.1086/158326.

Searches for three transitions of pyrrole (C4H5N) give maximum column density = 3-10×1013 cm-2 in Sgr B2. This limit is more than 10 times lower than previous ring molecule limits, and is slightly lower than column densities of known interstellar molecules with from four to six heavy atoms.
