SUMMARY:Visualization of prebiotic chemistry - Ziwei Liu (Cambridge MRC LM

DESCRIPTION:Prebiotic chemistry is to understand the chemical reactions fr
 om small molecules (e.g. hydrogen cyanide\, carbon dioxide\, etc.) to bio-
 related molecules (e.g. oligonucleotides\, peptides\, lipids\, carboxylate
 s\, etc.). Cyanosulfidic chemistry and carboxysulfitic chemistry are two s
 cenarios for the synthesis of small building blocks (e.g. amino acids\, (d
 eoxy)nucleosides\, carboxylates\, etc.). Crystallization is a geologically
  plausible way to purify some intermediates produced by these chemistries.
  Here I will discuss these two scenarios and have some examples of the pur
 ification of the prebiotic compounds by the crystallization process.
