Thermal synthesis of amino acids under assumed prebiotic conditions

This research was intended to demonstrate that the sulfur-containing amino acids could be thermally synthesized under hypothesized prebiotic conditions. Methane, ammonia, hydrogen sulfide and water vapor were passed through a reaction tube heated to 950°C in an attempt to synthesize cysteine (or cys...
