Moreover, the presence of the banded iron formations shows that Fe(+2) was present in significant concentrations in the primitive oceans. Assuming the hypotheses above, in this work we explore the effects of Fe(+2) and other ions in the generation of biomolecules in prebiotic simulation experiments using spark discharges and aqueous aerosols. These aerosols have been prepared using different sources of Fe(+2), such as FeS, FeCl(2) and FeCO(3), and other salts (alkaline and alkaline earth chlorides and sodium bicarbonate at pH = 5.8). In all these experiments, we observed the formation of some amino acids, carboxylic acids and heterocycles, involved in biological processes. An interesting consequence of the presence of soluble Fe(+2) was the formation of Prussian Blue, Fe(4)[Fe(CN)(6)](3), which has been suggested as a possible reservoir of HCN in the initial prebiotic conditions on the Earth. | Descripción: | 15 pages, 4 figures, 3 tables.-- PMID: 17899439 [PubMed].-- ISI Article Identifier: 000251368300004.-- Printed version published Dec 2007. | Versión del editor: | http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s11084-007-9107-0 | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10261/13067 | DOI: | 10.1007/s11084-007-9107-0 | ISSN: | 0169-6149 | E-ISSN: | 1573-0875 |
