摘要
The now-famous "Miller-Urey experiment" used a reduced mixture of gases to form basic organic molecules, such as amino acids. Since then, several methods have tried to reproduce the synthesis of amino acids under unusual conditions. All authors agree that the formation mechanisms of amino acids under such conditions might be of radical origin. If so, sonochemistry, known to enhance or to promote radical pathways, should be a powerful tool to access the synthesis of these compounds. We explored the feasibility of amino acid synthesis under ultrasonic irradiation in aqueous medium under a reductive atmosphere. The effects of several experimental parameters such as incident ultrasound frequency, temperature, nature and concentration of initial reactants, reaction time, and acoustic energy were explored. © 2010 Springer Science+Business Media, Inc.
