Abstract It is noted that the chemical reactions occurring in rarefied cosmic clouds (molecular concentration ≲$ 10^{2} $ $ cm^{−3} $) differ from similar laboratory reactions by the much greater effect on the outcome of external force fields. In this light it is hypothesized that the synthesis of optically active substances may occur in the outer space under the conjoint stereospecific effect of a magnetic and other molecule-orienting field. It is further conjectured that the optically active substances of the Solar System had been produced in the course of its formation out of the primal rarefied cloud.
