Description
Data from Miller-Urey experiments and Murchison meteorite already tell us what the most common prebiotic chemicals were. They do not tell us where they were made, it could have been almost anywhere, including on Earth. The rules governing chemical reactivity are universal. Theories based on chemoinformatic calculations about the nature of these early chemicals, the conditions and the likely order in which they were made will be presented and discussed.
