Arp 299 (Mrk 171), is an interacting system at 42 Mpc, comprising the galaxies IC 694 and NGC 3690. Interferometric CO maps at 6″ resolution (Sargent et al. 1987) showed compact molecular condensations at the nucleus of IC694 and in the overlap region of the galaxy disks [positions A and C – C in the terminology of Gehrz, Sramek, and Weedman (1983)].
