研究领域
以理论计算为主，实验研究为辅，理论计算和实验研究相结合。运用理论计算化学工具研究有机催化反应的机理，深入理解和解释所得实验结果，为进一步优化实验条件和发展新催化剂提供理论依据和思路；通过实验研究为理论计算明确实验上的难点和关键，校正理论计算结果，验证（或推翻）理论预测；研究过程中不断调整实验和理论计算的研究方向。遵循 “解释→预测→设计→验证” 的研究道路，发现和构思新的催化策略和催化思想，设计和发展新的催化剂和催化反应。研究兴趣主要集中在（但不限于）如下领域 ：
1. 金属有机催化反应选择性的影响因素及调控方法的研究，如脱氢偶联反应，脱氧脱水反应，加氢反应，烯烃/炔烃复分解反应，聚合反应等
2. 过渡金属 (尤其是便宜过渡金属Fe, Co, Ni, Zn等)催化的C-H 键的活化和C-X键的偶联
3. 过渡金属催化的小分子活化，比如CO2的还原，H2，N2和CH4的活化
