We present results from a study of two luminous IRAS sources thought to be young massive star-forming regions and which have no pre- viously detected radio continuum emission: IRAS 15596-5301 and IRAS 16272-4837. Our study incorporates sensitive ATCA radio continuum data, SEST 1.2-mm continuum (using the new SIMBA bolometer) and line data, as well as data taken from the MSX database. The results show that both sources are associated with dense molecular cores which appear to host recently formed massive stars. We argue that IRAS16272 is in a very early stage of evolution, prior to the formation of an ultra compact HII region and that IRAS15596 is in a more advanced stage and hosts a cluster of B-type stars. 1. Introduction We are undertaking a multi-wavelength study of a sample of 20 luminous IRAS sources that are thought to be representative of young massive star-forming regions. The sources in our sample were chosen from the Galaxy-wide survey of CS(2–1) emission towards 843 IRAS sources with infrared colours typical of compact HII regions (Bronfman, Nyman, May 1996). Each source selected for our sample showed line profiles indicative of either inward or outward motions and in some cases broad wings. Their IRAS luminosities were in the range 2 × 104 ? 4 × 105 L⊙, implying that they all contain at least one embedded massive star ( 8 M⊙). Two sources in our sample, IRAS 1
