Li is currently the Editor-in-Chief of the Research Letters in Organic Chemistry, the Associate Editor for Green Chemistry, 2005, and an International Advisory Board Member of Chemistry World, 2005. He is a consulting editor for McGraw-Hill’s Encyclopedia of Sciences and Technologies, 2002, and McGraw-Hill’s Year Book of Sciences and Technologies, since 2002, and is on the Editorial Advisory Boards of Letters in Organic Chemistry, 2004, Mini Reviews in Organic Chemistry, 2004. He is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry, UK, 2007. His current research efforts are to develop innovative and fundamentally new organic reactions that will defy conventional reactivities and possess high efficiency. He has published over 200 research papers and reviews, and authored (with T. H. Chan) the Organic Reactions in Aqueous Media, 1997, and the Comprehensive Organic Reactions in Aqueous Media 2007.
