Even with a catalytic agent of some type, the odds against information poor structures producing the type of information rich structures needed for life are mind-boggling.
But if I were to grant that this could be done (which I don't), there would still be a problem with trying to explain irreducible complexity. That point when several interdependent structures cannot exist without each other. IOW, the point when life begins. Before that, you just have a blob of chemicals.

Not with the application of external enthalpy. To frame it another way, if this were true it would make simple things like natural diamonds impossible.
