The observation of oxygen (O)- and nitrogen (N)-bearing molecules gives an idea about the complex prebiotic chemistry in the interstellar medium. Recent millimeter and submillimeter wavelength observations have shown the presence of complex O- and N-bearing molecules in the star formation regions. So, the investigation of those molecules is crucial to understanding the chemical complexity in the star-forming regions. In this article, we present the identification of the rotational emission lines of N-bearing molecules ethyl cyanide () and cyanoacetylene (HC3N), and O-bearing molecule methyl formate (CH3OCHO) toward high-mass protostar IRAS 18089–1732 using the Atacama Compact Array. We also detected the emission lines of both the N- and O-bearing molecule formamide (NH2CHO) in the envelope of IRAS 18089–1732. We have detected the v = 0 and 1 state rotational emission lines of CH3OCHO. We also detected the two vibrationally excited states of HC3N (v7 = 1 and v7 = 2). The estimated fractional abundances of
, HC3N (v7 = 1), HC3N (v7 = 2), and NH2CHO toward IRAS 18089–1732 are (1.40 ± 0.5) × 10−10, (7.5 ± 0.7) × 10−11, (3.1 ± 0.4) × 10−11, and (6.25 ± 0.82) × 10−11 respectively. Similarly, the estimated fractional abundances of CH3OCHO (v = 0) and CH3OCHO (v = 1) are (1.90 ± 0.9) × 10−9 and (8.90 ± 0.8) × 10−10, respectively. We also created the integrated emission maps of the detected molecules, and the observed molecules may have originated from the extended envelope of the protostar. We show that
and HC3N are most probably formed via the subsequential hydrogenation of the
