[Preliminary results on the abiotic synthesis of metalloporphyrins]
Abstract
The possibility of obtaining metalloporphyrins in abiotic conditions was investigated. The direct formation of zinc-porphyrins in the reaction product obtained by exposing a mixture of methane, ammonia and water vapor to electrical discharges is reported.
