Table 1

Column densities and rotational temperatures at the one beam offset position around source B from the ALMA-PILS data.

Molecule	Chemical formula	(cm⁻²)	T_ex (K)	V_peak (km s⁻¹)
Nitric oxide	NO	(1.5–2.5) × 10¹⁶	40–150	2.5 ± 0.2
Nitrous oxide	N₂O	≥4.0 × 10^16,‡	25–350	2.5 ± 0.2
Hydroxylamine	NH₂OH	≤3.7 × 10¹⁴	100	2.7
Methanimine	CH₂NH	(6.0–10.0) × 10¹⁴	70–120	2.7 ± 0.2
Methylamine	CH₃NH₂	≤5.3 × 10¹⁴	100	2.7

Notes. All models assume LTE, a FWHM of 1 km s⁻¹ and a sourcesize of 0.′′5. ^† Upper limits are 3σ and determined for T_ex = 100 K. ^‡Due to the large uncertainty on the highest excitation temperature only the lower limit column density is given.
