- Stereochemistry in biological molecules is often denoted by the D‑ and L‑ convention, instead of the ?‑R‑ and ?‑S‑ configurations determined by the Cahn–Ingold–Prelog methodology. Historically, the glyceraldehyde enantiomer that rotated plane polarized light clockwise was arbitrarily designated as D and the other enantiomer was designated as the L configuration. The D‑glyceraldehyde Fischer projection is shown.

If life arose by “chemical evolution” (which is supposed to be new chemical compounds arising by random chance), what should be the proportion of each of the L- and D-enantiomers present in chiral compounds produced by random chance? How does this match with what we see in living systems? What conclusion can you make from this about the likelihood of life arising by “chemical evolution?" 2. Why does chirality make a difference when new medications are developed? What is an ethical way of addressing this concern in the development process?
