A physicochemical orthophosphate cycle via a kinetically stable thermodynamically activated intermediate enables mild prebiotic phosphorylations

Transfer of scarce phosphate to organic molecules is a significant challenge for prebiotic chemistry. Here authors show a prebiotic physicochemical cycle to activate orthophosphate and via a kinetically stable, thermodynamically activated molecule phosphorylate all of life’s basic building blocks.
