IC 443 to investigate its overall molecular environment using 13.7m telescope in Delingha. The OTF map covers 2.25 square degree and reveals a half ring molecular structure in the north of the remnant (Figure f1). We suggest that the molecular gas with velocity interval of -5 to -2 km/s which is located in front of the remnant is associated with the SNR (Figure f2). Using WISE and 2MASS infared dataset, we recognized 62 young stellar object (YSO) candidates in the field of view of the remnant. These YSO candidates concentrated along the boundary of the remnant's bright radio shell are probably to be triggered by the stellar winds from the massive progenitor of SNR IC 443.
