Abstract

The role of asymmetric photoreactions (occurring in space or on the primitive Earth) in the origin of biomolecular homochirality is critically reviewed. A general description of the various possible ways for light to interact with chiral molecules is first presented on the basis of a series expansion of the dielectric constant: natural, magnetic and magnetochiral circular dichroism are identified with the first three terms in this development. Natural and magnetochiral circular dichroism may cause, through asymmetric photolysis, an enantiomeric excess in a racemic mixture of chiral molecules irradiated, respectively, by circularly polarized ultraviolet light, or by unpolarized ultraviolet light in the presence of a magnetic field non-perpendicular to the light beam. Terrestrial and extraterrestrial sites matching these conditions are then critically reviewed. Finally, we stress the possibility to arrive at the homochirality of amino acids through a path involving D-ribose during RNA world as an alternative to the usual scenarios operating directly on amino acids.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
