Abstract: Let G be a simple complex Lie group with Lie algebra mfg and let af be the affine Lie algebra. We use intertwining operators and Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov equations to construct a family of N-graded vertex operator algebras associated to mfg. They are afoplusaf-modules of dual levels in the sense that where hvee is the dual Coxeter number of mfg. Its conformal weight 0 component is the algebra of regular functions on G. This family of vertex operator algebras were previously studied by Arkhipov-Gaitsgory and Gorbounov-Malikov-Schechtman from different points of view. We show that the vertex envelope of the vertex algebroid associated to G and level k is isomorphic to the vertex operator algebra we constructed above when k is irrational. The case of integral central charges is also discussed.
