The prebiotic molecules observed in the interstellar gas.
Over 130 molecules have been identified in the interstellar gas and circumstellar shells, the largest among them is a carbon chain with 13 atoms and molecular weight of 147 (twice that of the simplest amino acid glycine). The high reliability of astronomical identifications, as well as the fairly accurate quantitative analysis which can often be achieved, is emphasized. Glycine itself has been ...
متن کاملPrebiotic molecules in interstellar space: rotational spectroscopy and quantum chemistry
One of the most important open issues in astrochemistry and astrobiology is the detection in space of complex organic molecules, in particular those having a strong prebiotic role (i.e., related to the formation of biomolecule building blocks), and the identification of the chemical routes for their production. By means of selected examples, the role of rotational spectroscopy and quantum chemi...
متن کاملSynthesis of prebiotic glycerol in interstellar ices.
Contemporary mechanisms for the spontaneous formation of glycerol have not been able to explain its existence on early Earth. The exogenous origin and delivery of organic molecules to early Earth presents an alternative route to their terrestrial in situ formation since biorelevant molecules like amino acids, carboxylic acids, and alkylphosphonic acids have been recovered from carbonaceous chon...
متن کاملLow-energy electron-induced chemistry of condensed methanol: implications for the interstellar synthesis of prebiotic molecules.
In the interstellar medium, UV photolysis of condensed methanol (CH3OH), contained in ice mantles surrounding dust grains, is thought to be the mechanism that drives the formation of "complex" molecules, such as methyl formate (HCOOCH3), dimethyl ether (CH3OCH3), acetic acid (CH3COOH), and glycolaldehyde (HOCH2CHO). The source of this reaction-initiating UV light is assumed to be local because ...
متن کامل: Interstellar molecules WilliAms , broWn , Price , rAWlings , Viti : Interstellar molecules
1.25 Over the past 40 years, about 140 distinct molecular species have been detected in a wide range of astronomical locations (see http://www.cv.nrao.edu/~awootten/ allmols.html). We now know that molecules are present within our galaxy in the atmospheres of cool stars, in stellar envelopes, in planetary nebulae, in the ejecta of novae and supernovae, in diffuse and dense clouds in the interst...
