It is therefore crucial to unravel the physical and chemical structures of such discs in their earliest stages while they are still embedded in their natal envelopes and compare them with more evolved systems. The purpose of this paper is to explore the structure of a line-rich Class I protobinary source, Oph-IRS 67, and analyse the differences and similarities with Class 0 and Class II sources. We present a systematic molecular line study of IRS 67 with the Submillimeter Array (SMA) on 1-2" (150-300AU) scales. The wide instantaneous band-width of the SMA observations (~30GHz) provide detections of a range of molecular transitions that trace different physics, such as CO isotopologues, sulphur-bearing species, deuterated species, and carbon-chain molecules. We see significant differences between different groups of species. For example, the CO isotopologues and sulphur-bearing species show a rotational profile and are tracing the larger-scale circumbinary disc structure, while CN, DCN, and carbon-chain molecules peak at the southern edge of the disc at blue-shifted velocities. In addition, the cold gas tracer DCO^+^ is seen beyond the extent of the circumbinary disc. The detected molecular transitions can be grouped into three main components: cold regions far from the system, the circumbinary disc, and a UV-irradiated region likely associated with the surface layers of the disc that are reached by the UV radiation from the sources. The different components are consistent with the temperature structure derived from the ratio of two H_2_CO transitions, that is, warm temperatures are seen towards the outflow direction, lukewarm temperatures are associated with the UV-radiated region, and cold temperatures are related with the circumbinary disc structure. The chemistry towards IRS 67 shares similarities with both Class 0 and Class II sources, possibly due to the high gas column density and the strong UV radiation arising from the binary system. IRS 67 is, therefore, highlighting the intermediate chemistry between deeply embedded sources and T-Tauri discs.2019A&A...627A..37Ahttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/A+A/627/A37CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicehttps://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.htmlhttps://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/A+A/627/A37https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/A+A/627/A37http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/A+A/627/A37https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/A+A/627/A37https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/A+A/627/A37http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/A+A/627/A37GETtext/xml+votablehttps://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tapCone search capability for table J/A+A/627/A37/list (List of fits files)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/A+A/627/A37/list?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/A+A/627/A37/list?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/A+A/627/A37/list?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true248.00406-24.945420.0055555555555555566/42970https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/moc/J/A+A/627/A37?format=asciiMillimeterdefaultJ/A+A/627/A37/listList of fits filesrecnoRecord number assigned by the VizieR team.
