Physical autocatalysis driven by a bond-forming thiol-ene reaction.

Abstract:

Autocatalysis has been extensively studied because it is central to the propagation of living systems. Chemical systems which self-reproduce like living cells would offer insight into principles underlying biology and its emergence from inanimate matter. Protocellular models feature a surfactant boundary, providing compartmentalization in the form of a micelle or vesicle and any model of the emergence of cellular life must account for the appearance, and evolution of, such boundaries.
