Abstract
We have enlarged our model of the gas-grain interaction describing deuterium chemistry in dense interstellar clouds, to include the grain-surface formation of molecules bearing two or more deuterium atoms. We find that a large degree of fractionation occurs in multi-deuterated species which implies that NHD2, for example, should be detectable in hot core regions.Keywords
