Abstract:	Spectral line survey observations in the 3 mm band have been conducted toward 7 molecular clouds in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) with the Mopra 22 m telescope. Spectral lines of the fundamental species CCH, HCN, HCO+, HNC, CS, SO, and c-C3H2 are detected. Although the 7 sources are different in star-formation activities, chemical compositions averaged over the 10 pc beam are similar to one another. We find that N-bearing species are deficient and CCH is relatively abundant in comparison with metal-rich environments. In spite of overall similarity of the chemical compositions, we also find a trend that the CS/HCO+ and SO/HCO+ ratios are higher for starless clouds.
