Abstract:
The possibility of observing a difference in the high-resolution NMR spectra of two enantiomers as due to parity nonconservation is discussed. Proposals to minimize the NMR linewidths are presented. It is concluded that, using the ultra- high-resolution technique, a difference could be observed with high Z value spin one- half nuclei such as Pt, T1, Xe. Other nuclei can also be considered.
