Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We performed the static compression of organic materials at low temperature, in order to examine the behavior of organic materials in the interior of ice satellites. Several starting materials (benzene, naphthalene, and alanine) changed into their polymers under low-temperature and ultra high-pressure conditions. The experiment using the aqueous solution of alanine as a starting material showed that even though the production of peptides was the dehydration, alanine peptides were produced from the solution. This result indicates that the concentration process can occur when the alanine solution freezes into high-pressure phases of ice, which may enhance the polymerization of alanine. The results described above suggest that the interior of satellites can be a field in which the chemical evolution occurs.
