Engaged in organic chemistry and medicinal chemistry research, the research direction is the synthesis of antiviral drugs (hepatitis B and AIDS), and successively presided over the National Science Foundation for Distinguished Young Scholars, the National Natural Science Foundation and the National Key Basic Research and Development Plan (973 Plan); National high-tech research and development plan (863 plan); National major new drug project; National Ministry of Education's Support Program for Outstanding Talents in the New Century. "Study on the Total Synthesis of Schisandrin A and Schisandrin B, the effective components of traditional Chinese medicine Schisandra chinensis", which is the first time in the world to biomimetically synthesize the same pharmacological active products as natural Schisandrin A and Schisandrin B, has a good development prospect; Aiming at a series of compounds whose receptor structures are unknown and close to effective, a series of new nucleoside compounds were synthesized by computer-aided analysis of molecular pharmacophore and its conformation Pharmacological screening and animal experiments show that some compounds have high anti-AIDS activity and little toxic and side effects.
