            Abstract : 
A new scheme of laser coherent control of molecular chirality in a racemic mixture of chiral molecules employing quantum entanglement between rotational and chiral molecular degrees of freedom is proposed. Feasibility of an experimental realization of such a scheme is discussed in detail.
