'''Chemical evolution''' has two meanings and uses. The first refers to the theories of evolution of the ]s in the universe following the ] and through ] in ]s and ]s.

The second use of chemical evolution or '''chemosynthesis''' is as a hypothesis to explain how ] might possibly have developed or evolved from non-life (see ]). Various experiments have been made to show certain aspects of this process, the first ones were done by ] in the ]. For that they are now called ]s. However only very basic organic building blocks were obtained. The challenge is getting complex molecules organized consistently.

The hypothesis is that simple chemical compounds could catalyze the creation of copies of themselves (somewhat similar to the formation of a ] or ]) in an environment rich with the necessary building block compounds or elements. As these ] "reproduce", they can be created with slightly different structures randomly, similar to biological ]s. Eventually these replicators would produce ]s.
