“…To simulate the dust/ice catalyzed chemistry, usually bulk surfaces are employed in the laboratory studies. [176][177][178] The clusters and nanoparticles in molecular beams can provide an alternative approach. They can mimic the dust/ice grains and offer some advantages for understanding the surface catalyzed chemistry.…”

“…For example, the reaction intermediates and even the final products are sometimes difficult to detect in the bulk system. 177 In the case of clusters, they often leave the finite-size cluster and can be detected and characterized by mass spectrometry or optical spectroscopy. Thus the clusters can offer a detailed insight into the individual steps of complex reactions on dust/ice grains.…”

“…Technical detection problems within observational approaches can be overcome by simulating, e.g., interstellar ice analogs in the laboratory. This enables a better understanding of the formation mechanisms of complex organic molecules [ 41 ], predicting reactive intermediate species [ 42 ], overcoming spectroscopic detection challenges [ 43 ] or understanding celestial bodies’ evolution [ 44 ].…”

Astrochemistry, meteoritics and chemical analytics represent a manifold scientific field, including various disciplines. In this review, clarifications on astrochemistry, comet chemistry, laboratory astrophysics and meteoritic research with respect to organic and metalorganic chemistry will be given. The seemingly large number of observed astrochemical molecules necessarily requires explanations on molecular complexity and chemical evolution, which will be discussed. Special emphasis should be placed on data-driven analytical methods including ultrahigh-resolving instruments and their interplay with quantum chemical computations. These methods enable remarkable insights into the complex chemical spaces that exist in meteorites and maximize the level of information on the huge astrochemical molecular diversity. In addition, they allow one to study even yet undescribed chemistry as the one involving organomagnesium compounds in meteorites. Both targeted and non-targeted analytical strategies will be explained and may touch upon epistemological problems. In addition, implications of (metal)organic matter toward prebiotic chemistry leading to the emergence of life will be discussed. The precise description of astrochemical organic and metalorganic matter as seeds for life and their interactions within various astrophysical environments may appear essential to further study questions regarding the emergence of life on a most fundamental level that is within the molecular world and its self-organization properties.
