We present a multi‐wavelength observational study towards the high‐mass young stellar object G8.68−0.37. A single massive gas‐and‐dust core is observed in the (sub)millimetre continuum and molecular line emissions. We fitted the spectral energy distribution (SED) from the dust continuum emission. The best‐fitting SED suggests the presence of two components with temperature of  T  d = 20 and 120 K, respectively. The core has a total mass of up to 1.5 × 10 3  M ⊙  and a bolometric luminosity of 2.3 × 10 4  L ⊙ . Both the mass and luminosity are dominated by the cold component ( T  d = 20 K). The molecular lines of C 18 O, C 34 S, DCN and thermally excited CH 3 OH are detected in this core. Prominent infall signatures are observed in the  12 CO (1 − 0) and (2 − 1). We estimated an infall velocity of 0.45 km s −1  and a mass infall rate of 7 × 10 −4  M ⊙  yr −1 . From the molecular lines, we have found a high DCN‐to‐HCN abundance ratio of 0.07. The overabundant DCN may originate from a significant deuteration in the previous cold pre‐protostellar phase. And the DCN should now be rapidly sublimated from the grain mantles to maintain the overabundance in the gas phase.
