Table 1: Observed molecules together with the observing parameters. The critical densities ( $n_{\rm cr}$) are computed for temperatures between 50 and 100 K using the collisional coefficients quoted in Sect. 4. The area mapped ( $\Delta \alpha \times \Delta \delta $) in each transition and the sampling of the map are reported in the last two lines. $B_{\rm eff}$ is the beam efficiency of the telescope. The symbol "-'' implies that only observations towards the "key'' positions have been obtained.
