Edward J. Behrman's work centers on organic and inorganic chemistry topics such as the Elbs and Boyland-Sims oxidation reactions (chemical processes that add hydroxyl or sulfonate groups to aromatic compounds), crystal structure determination of small molecules, and the history of chemistry, including a translated biography of chemist Emil Fischer. His publications combine experimental crystallography, computational studies of reaction mechanisms, and historical/biographical scholarship on notable chemists.
