科研领域及兴趣：

稀土是我国重要的战略资源，也是不可再生资源。稀土元素因其独特的4f电子结构和特殊的物理和化学性质，无论从基础研究还是应用研究的角度都具有重要意义。稀土金属有机化合物在小分子和惰性化学键活化，烯烃聚合，有机合成催化等领域扮演了重要的角色，但反应类型、选择性和底物范围同其它过渡金属有机化合物形成互补。稀土金属有机杂环化合物，与主族和过渡金属有机杂环化合物的研究相比，鲜有报道。本课题组的研究思路：建立简单、高效的合成方法，创建新的稀土金属有机杂环；结构表征及阐明其成键模式，并发现其新的反应性和催化功能；通过反应活性中间体的分离和结构表征，结合计算化学，阐明反应机制；基于发现的新反应，结合国家需求，开发关键化学化工产品的新工艺。主要研究兴趣包括：

1. 稀土金属有机杂环化学；
2. 稀土或其它金属促进的白磷直接合成有机膦的新方法和技术。
