title: Growth of peptide chains on silica in absence of amino acid access from without.
abstract: Changes in IR spectra during thermal treatment of chemisorption products of glycine and valine vapours on dehydrated silica surfaces have been studied. Peptide products were formed from these chemisorbed species. A scheme of peptide chain growth on the silica surface is suggested based on the idea of ester type "activated intermediates".
