Ethanimine is an organonitrogen compound classified as an imine. It is not well known terrestrially but has been detected in abundance towards Sagittarius B2 (Sgr B2) a dense interstellar cloud in between stars towards the galactic center of the Milky Way. The distance between the Sgr B2 cloud and center of galaxy is 100 pc (1 pc=3.26l y). Ethanimine is mainly found in hot cores of ISM clouds; in case of Sgr B2 the region would be the Sgr B2 N and Sgr B2 M.
