Summary:
Given a principal ideal domain $R$ of characteristic zero, containing 1/2, and a two-cone $X$ of appropriate connectedness and dimension, we present a sufficient algebraic condition, in terms of Adams-Hilton models, for the Hopf algebra $FH(\Omega X; R)$ to be isomorphic with the universal enveloping algebra of some $R$-free graded Lie algebra; as usual, $F$ stands for free part, $H$ for homology, and $\Omega$ for the Moore loop space functor.
