“…There was a considerable amount of speculation in relation to the early findings of the stabilization of L amino acids and D sugars by parity violation 3640. These results were, however, refuted by recent theory2, 42, 50, 51, 56 and it was argued that, in any case, the calculation of transition states, precursors, or intermediates in biochemical mechanisms would be more relevant 50, 51, 120. We think that no clear answer to the question of the origin of biochemical homochirality exists at present or is to be expected in the near future 93.…”

“…Further, contrary to early calculations suggesting that the weak neutral force would favor the terrestrially dominant Lamino acids, Quack has concluded from extensive later work that theoretical calculations provide no direct relation between PVED and the hand of the chiral molecule, as would be expected, for example, from the de lege postulate for an L-amino acid world. 41,42 It is important to note that the Soai reaction is itself a singularity, not only in its (to date) unique capacity to amplify ee but also in its stunning autocatalytic efficiency and persistence; the irreversible nature of this reaction allows it to exhibit true exponential kinetics rather than the parabolic kinetic profile characteristic of the product inhibition that ultimately suppresses template-directed self-replication in non-enzymatic nucleic acid or peptide replicators as reaction turnover increases. [43][44][45] Persistence is key to the sustained propagation and amplification of a small initial imbalance of enantiomers, a problem related to that of proposed pre-genetic metabolic cycles that must remain stable against inexorable decay from inapposite side reactions.…”

“…2). Gegenüber Fluoroxiran29 und Methanderivaten sowie Methanisotopomeren34 oder den in der Biologie wichtigen Aminosäuren6, 7, 3540 – alles Moleküle im Grenzfall hoher Barriere – hat Dischwefeldichlorid den Vorteil, dass nun zusätzlich zur Paritätsverletzung auch dessen Stereomutationsdynamik gut verstanden ist. Diese Ergebnisse führen zu einer neuen Vorstellung von molekularer Chiralität, welche sich fundamental von der Hundschen paritätserhaltenden Beschreibung unterscheidet 1, 2…”
