Divergent prebiotic synthesis of pyrimidine and 8-oxo-purine ribonucleotides

While mechanisms have been proposed for the prebiotic nucleotide synthesis, these require separate (and potentially incompatible) routes for pyrimidines and purines. Here the authors show that both of these classes of molecules can be formed by a divergent synthesis from a common prebiotic precursor...
