Formamide Adsorption at the Amorphous Silica Surface: A Combined Experimental and Computational Approach
Mineral surfaces have been demonstrated to play a central role in prebiotic reactions, which are understood to be at the basis of the origin of life. Among the various molecules proposed as precursors for these reactions, one of the most interesting is formamide. Formamide has been shown to be a plu...
