Amino acids are important ingredients of life that would | |
have been delivered to Earth by extraterrestrial sources, | |
e.g., comets and meteorites. Amino acids are found in | |
aqueously altered carbonaceous chondrites in good part in | |
the form of precursors that release amino acids after | |
acid hydrolysis. Meanwhile, most of the organic carbon | |
(greater than 70 weight %) in carbonaceous chondrites | |
exists in the form of solvent insoluble organic matter | |
(IOM) with complex macromolecular structures. Complex | |
macromolecular organic matter can be produced by either | |
photolysis of interstellar ices or aqueous chemistry in | |
planetesimals. We focused on the synthesis of amino acids | |
during aqueous alteration, and demonstrated one-pot | |
synthesis of a complex suite of amino acids | |
simultaneously with IOM via hydrothermal experiments | |
simulating the aqueous processing | |
