โฆ Synopsis
The panty-vlolaung weak neulral current perturbauon of the elecuomc energy has been calculated, using ab I~JULIO methods, along the reacuon path for Ihe formatron of L-a-anuno-proplonitnle by the nucleophdic addwon of a cyamde amon LO an ethyl-mumum cation The WNC energy shift for thus preblotx reaction. leadmg to a posable precursor of the ammo acid aknme. LS found 10 favour the existence of the MNUYI.I L-enantiomer m preference to the unnatural nurror-usage D-enanuomer under equlllbnum condrbons

An experiment is outlined for measuring the small energy difference between two enantiomers due to the parity-violating weak neutral current perturbation. The method is based on the violation of the selection rules for the time evolution of states of well defined initial parity in isolated molecules
The C,endo conformations of tetmhydrofuran are stabilized relative to their Crendo enantiomers by the parity-violating weak interactions.
