Abstract
This organic matter could have been accreted in a minor component of Abee like the dark inclusions without (or prior to) exposure to the radiation responsible for D enrichments in other meteoritic organics. During the last brecciation events that have affected the Abee parent body, these inclusions could have been mixed with other Abee components. The properties of this organic matter can be interpreted as an indication that thermodynamic processes acted in the synthesis of organic matter in the protosolar disk, in addition to ion/molecule and gas/grains reaction witnessed by the D-rich insoluble organic matter contained in carbonaceous chondrites.
