The reaction systems involve gaseous mixtures at an interface with ice surfaces. The reactions are sensitive to the feed mixture and the ice trapped compounds. Keywords: Cold plasma synthesis, terpenes, chemical evolution. Introduction high level of oxygen results in decomposition of organic compounds. During the last decade plasmas have been intensively The study of natural products from contemporary sophisticated superstructures shows the role of lipid investigated due to the possible application in technology, chemistry, and spectroscopy [1]. The progress of low- temperature plasma applications depends obviously on the development of devices that generate such a plasma, e.g., RF (Radio Frequency) or DC (Direct Current) generators, microwave plasmatrons. One of the fields in which cold plasma systems have been extensively used concerns chemical evolution simulations. After Millers successful experiment [2], many more followed in which the synthesis of some significant prebiotic compounds, such as amino acids, nucleic acids compounds (terpenes [7-8] particularly) for living membranes, in reinforcing them against shear stresses. Primitive membranes could initially have been formed by simple terpenoids, and vesicles formed from these membranes
