Outline of Final Research Achievements	The general group discussed the revitalization, dissemination, and future vision of this field, and was in charge of specific planning and management. Specifically, the group was responsible for (1) organizing and sponsoring conferences and international symposia and promoting research exchanges within and outside the field, (2) publishing a special issue of "Coordination Asymmetry" utilizing two international journals of the Chemical Society of Japan, (3) expanding the perspectives and expertise of graduate students and young researchers by offering basic and practical courses to learn the principles and experimental techniques of experiments, theoretical calculations, and physical properties, and by holding study sessions for young researchers, (4) disseminating international information on activities in the field by posting News Letters on the website, and (5) publishing review papers (Bull. Chem. Soc. Jpn.).
