Using hydrogen peroxide as an example, the specific features of the laser control of the chiral state of an initially racemic mixture of molecules without their preliminary orientation have been studied. The determining role of molecular rotations and the molecular ensemble temperature have been revealed, and promising schemes for the laser asymmetric synthesis of enantiomers from a racemic mixture have been proposed.
