Their topics include selenium-halogen and tellurium-halogen reagents, organo-selenium and organo-tellurium compounds containing chalcogen-oxygen bonds in organic syntheses or related processes, the synthesis and
coordination chemistry of cyclic selenoureas and telluroureas, selenium and tellurium electrophiles in organic synthesis, and recent advances in the self-assembly of polynuclear metal-selenium and metal-tellurium compounds from 14-16 reagents.
In terms of
coordination chemistry, the dicarboxylic acid with aromatic ring can increase the thermal stability and rigidity of the coordination polymer frame structure by coordination with metal ions in many different modes, such as multi-tooth chelating, bridging, and mono-dentate and so on.

coordination chemistry and hydrogen bonds.
As a master's student at the University of Saskatchewan, he studied under Gerhard Herzberg, establishing the foundations of his research into oxidizing agents and
coordination chemistry. Notably, he realized that key processes in organic chemistry had analogs in inorganic chemistry.
