Abstract: | Summary Oligomers formed by ionizing radiation in aqueous cyanide solutions, under various experimental conditions, have been characterized by infrared spectroscopy. IR bands appear in the region known to be characteristic for amides and peptides. The results are discussed in relation to radiation-induced formation of peptidic material and the potential role of ionizing radiation as an energy source for some processes in prebiotic molecular evolution. |
