Over the years, his work led to the definition of a new field of chemistry, which he has proposed calling 'supramolecular chemistry', as it deals with the complex entities formed by the association of two or more chemical species held together by non-covalent intermolecular forces. Subsequently, the area developed into the chemistry of 'self-organization' processes and more recently into 'constitutional dynamic chemistry'.
