His most outstanding contribution is to further prompt the complex stereochemical isomerization of organic molecules, clarify the optical properties of various "chiral" molecules and the reaction mechanism and process of forming different isomers Organic stereochemistry The development of is a major contribution. He also participated in the establishment of a set of stereochemistry configuration nomenclature, which has been widely recognized and recommended by IUPAC, called "R · S · method". Therefore, two chemists of different nationalities shared the 1975 Nobel Prize in Chemistry.
