Distribution of aluminum and boron in the periodical building units of boron-containing Beta zeolites

Various boron only ([B]-BEA) as well as aluminum- and boron-containing beta zeolites ([Al,B]-BEA) have been prepared and modified by ion exchange of ammonium, sodium, and nickel ions. The zeolite samples have been characterized by 11B, 27Al, and 29Si MAS as well as three of them by 11B and 27Al 3Q-MAS NMR spectroscopy. The quantitative contributions of defect-free Si(nX) (n = 2, 1, 0; X = Al, B) and Si(OH)x (x = 2, 1) sites to the NMR signal intensities were calculated from the various Si/(Al + B) ratios and relative 11B, 27Al, and 29Si NMR signal intensities using the special distribution of aluminum and boron in different periodical building units of the zeolite framework. The boron atoms are sitting exclusively in diagonal positions in the four-membered rings of [B]-BEA zeolites, while the aluminum atoms are situated both in diagonal and lone positions in the four-membered rings of [Al,B]-BEA zeolites. A higher part of boron atoms are positioned in framework-related deformed tetrahedral boron species than in lattice positions in the [B]-BEA than in the [Al,B]-BEA zeolites. All extraframework octahedral aluminum species are transformed back to lattice positions due to ion exchange from the protonated form to ammonium-, sodium-, or nickel-ions containing zeolites. Oppositely, trigonal boron leaves the zeolite structure completely during ion exchange.

Magic angle spinning29Si and27Al NMR study of mordenite dealumination

Magic angle spinning²⁹Si NMR presents a rapid qualitative method of assessing the degree of dealumination of sodium mordenite modified by acid leaching and heat treatment. A quantitative determination of the²⁹Si coordination sphere is hampered by the overlap of chemical shift ranges for Si?O?Al and Si?O?H species. MAS²⁷Al NMR indicates the presence of octahedrally coordinated Al in interstitial sites in all treated samples. On treating mordenite samples at high temperatures (～700°C) much of the Al becomes invisible to the NMR experiment because of its location in sites of low symmetry and large quadrupole coupling constant.

Brønsted Acidity and Aluminum Substitution Characteristics of Si(nAi) Sites in Zeolites: A Theoretical MNDO Calculation

The Brønsted acidity of the various Si(nAl) sites present in zeolites is evaluated from proton binding energy and LUMO energy calculated by the semiempirical MNDO quantum chemical method. The two calculated energy values both exhibit a linear correlation with the existing ²⁹Si NMR chemical shift and the IR hydroxyl stretching frequency data. The inter-convertibility between different Si(nAl) sites during an alumination or dealumination process is also evaluated based on the calculated substitution energy. The results indicate that alumination processes are less favorable to occur in zeolites than dealumination processes and the latter is more likely to occur for Si(nAl) clusters that contain the maximum number of aluminum nearest neighbors.

Through analysis of these solid-state ~(29)Si NMR spectra, theresults related to dealumination process of mordenite are obtained. It is shown that mor-denite is combined by four kinds of non-equivalent Si (or Al) via oxygen bridges. The deal-umination order is T(1), T(2), T(4) and T(3). The dealuminated amount in the non-equivalentsites during different dealumination processes has also been discussed in detail.

Characterization of silica-pillared derivatives from aluminum-containing kanemite

A series of aluminum-containing kanemite (Al-kanemite) samples with several Si/Al molar ratios were synthesized. The Al-kanemite samples were pillared with silica. X-ray diffractograms showed that the layered structure of the Al-kanemite samples was maintained at Si/Al= infinity approximately 10 but was broken at Si/Al = 5, 2.5, and 1. 29Si MAS NMR spectra of the Al-kanemite samples, except for that of Si/Al = 1, mainly showed peaks of Q(3) sites, which were attributed to Si(OSi)(3)(OH) groups, although peaks assigned to Si(OAl)(OSi)(2)(OH) were also seen. The 27Al MAS NMR spectra indicated that the Al-kanemite samples had only four-coordinate aluminum atoms. The FTIR spectra of pyridine adsorbed on the pillared Al-kanemite derivatives revealed Lewis acid sites on the surface. The nitrogen adsorption isotherms of the derivatives were classified as type I (Langmuir) absorption isotherms. Using the alpha(s) method, the specific surface areas of the derivatives were 572-756 m(2)g(-1), and the pore sizes were calculated as 1.25-1.83 nm. The pillared Al-kanemite derivatives had slit-shaped micropore structures.     

HZSM-5分子筛焙烧脱铝的27Al MQMAS NMR研究

Solid-state NMR spectra of paramagnetic silica-based materials: observation of 29Si and 27Al nuclei in the first coordination spheres of manganese ions

Some silica-based solids, prepared by the sol/gel method in the presence of high Mn2+ concentrations, have been characterized by the 29Si, 27Al MAS NMR spectra and 29Si T1 measurements. The single-pulse 29Si and 27Al MAS NMR spectra have shown broad spinning sideband patterns that are interpreted in terms of anisotropic bulky magnetic susceptibility (BMS) and dipole-field effects. In the absence of paramagnetic isotropic shifts, the 29Si and 27Al nuclei observed in the single-pulse NMR spectra have been assigned to nuclei remote from paramagnetic centers. It has been demonstrated that the 29Si and 27Al nuclei, which are in the vicinity of the manganese ions, can be detected by the Hahn-echo MAS NMR experiments at different carrier frequencies.     

Interactions of silicate ions with zinc(II) and aluminum(III) in alkaline aqueous solution

We present (29)Si, (27)Al, and (67)Zn NMR evidence to show that silicate ions in alkaline solution form complexes with zinc(II) (present as zincate, Zn(OH)(3)(-) or Zn(OH)(4)(2-)) and, concomitantly, with aluminate (Al(OH)(4)(-)). Zincate reacts with monomeric silicate at pH 14-15 to form [(HO)O(2)Si-O-Zn(OH)(3)](4-) and with dimeric silicate to produce [HO-SiO(2)-O-SiO(2)-O-Zn(OH)(3)](6-). The exchange of Si between these free and Zn-bound sites is immeasurably fast on the (29)Si NMR time scale. The cyclic silicate trimer reacts relatively slowly and incompletely with zincate to form [(HO)(3)Zn{(SiO(3))(3)}](7-). The concentration of the cyclic trimer becomes further depleted because zincate scavenges the silicate monomer and dimer, with which the cyclic trimer is in equilibrium on the time scale of sample preparation. Identification of these zincate-silicate complexes is supported by quantum chemical theoretical calculations. Aluminate and zincate, when present together, compete roughly equally for a deficiency of silicate to form [(HO)(3)ZnOSiO(2)OH](4-) and [(HO)(3)AlOSiO(2)OH](3-) which exchange (29)Si at a fast but measurable rate.     

Methane dehydrogenation and aromatization in the absence of oxygen on Mo/HZSM-5: A study on the interaction between Mo species and HZSM-5 by using Al and Si MAS NMR

By using a high-resolution solid state nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometer with ²⁷Al and ²⁹Si probes, the interaction between Mo species and HZSM-5 of frsol|Mo/HZSM-5 catalysts has been studied. The results show that there is a strong interaction between Mo species and HZSM-5 zeolite. The framework aluminum in the zeolite can be easily extracted by the introduction of Mo species. The extractability of framework aluminum by Mo species increases with increasing Mo loading and the calcination temperature. The extraction process leads to the formation of non-framework Al at first and then a new crystalline phase of Al₂(MoO₄)₃. The dealumination of the catalyst having a Mo loading of 15% and had been calcined at 973 K is so severe that all the aluminum in the framework are extracted and no framework Al could be detected by ²⁷Al MAS NMR. The catalyst, therefore, lost its catalytic activity for methane dehydrogenation and aromatization in the absence of oxygen. The Si/Al ratio measured from ²⁹Si MAS NMR further confirms the dealumination process observed by ²⁷Al MAS NMR. The MAS NMR results give us an evidence that Al₂(MoO₄)₃ crystallites are much less active for the reaction.     

Magic-Angle-Spinning NMR (MAS-NMR) Spectroscopy and the Structure of Zeolites

After outlining the chemical features and properties which make zeolites such an important group of catalysts and sorbents, the article explains how high-resolution solid-state NMR with magic-angle spinning reveals numerous new insights into their structure. ²⁹Si-MAS-NMR readily and quantitatively identifies five distinct Si(OAl)_n(OSi)_4-n structural groups in zeolitic frameworks (n = 0, 1,….4), corresponding to the first tetrahedral coordination shell of a silicon atom. Many catalytic and other chemical properties of zeolites are governed by the short-range Si, Al order, the nature of which is greatly clarified by ²⁹Si-MAS-NMR. It is shown that, as expected from Pauling's electroneutrality principle and Loewenstein's rule, both in zeolite X and in zeolite A (with Si/Al = 1.00) there are no ? Al? O? Al? linkages. In zeolite A and zeolite X with Si/Al = 1.00 there is strict alternation of Si and Al on the tetrahedral sites. Ordering models for Si/Al ratios up to 5.00 (in zeolite Y) may also be evaluated by a combination of MAS-NMR experiments and computational procedures. ²⁹Si-MAS-NMR spectra reveal the presence of numerous crystallographically distinct Si(OSi)₄ sites in silicalite/ZSM-5, suggesting that the correct space group for these related porosilicates is not Pnma. ²⁷Al-MAS-NMR clearly distinguishes tetrahedrally and octahedrally coordinated aluminum, proving that, contrary to earlier claims, Al in silicalite is tetrahedrally substituted within the framework. In combination, ²⁹Si- and ²⁷Al-MAS-NMR is a powerful tool for monitoring the course of solid-state processes (such as ultrastabilization of synthetic faujasites) and of gas-solid reactions (dealumination of zeolites with silicon tetrachloride vapor at elevated temperatures). They also permit the quantitative determination of framework Si/Al ratios in the region 1.00 < Si/Al < 10 000. Since most elements in the periodic table may be accommodated within zeolite structures, either as part of the exchangeable cations or as building units of the anionic framework, there is immense scope for investigation by MAS-NMR and its variants (cross-polarization, multiple pulse and variable-angle spinning) of bulk, surface and chemical properties. Some of the directions in which future research in zeolite science may proceed are adumbrated.     

Solid-state Al and Si NMR characterization of hydrates formed in calcium aluminate-silica fume mixtures

Partially deuterated Ca₃Al₂(SiO₄)_y(OH)_12−4y-Al(OH)₃ mixtures, prepared by hydration of Ca₃Al₂O₆ (C₃A), Ca₁₂Al₁₄O₃₃ (C₁₂A₇) and CaAl₂O₄ (CA) phases in the presence of silica fume, have been characterized by ²⁹Si and ²⁷Al magic-angle spinning-nuclear magnetic resonance (MAS-NMR) spectroscopies. NMR spectroscopy was used to characterize anhydrous and fully hydrated samples. In hydrated compounds, Ca₃Al₂(OH)₁₂ and Al(OH)₃ phases were detected. From the quantitative analysis of ²⁷Al NMR signals, the Al(OH)₃/Ca₃Al₂(OH)₁₂ ratio was deduced. The incorporation of Si into the katoite structure, Ca₃Al₂(SiO₄)_3−x(OH)_4x, was followed by ²⁷Al and ²⁹Si NMR spectroscopies. Si/OH ratios were determined from the quantitative analysis of ²⁷Al MAS-NMR components associated with Al(OH)₆ and Al(OSi)(OH)₅ environments. The ²⁹Si NMR spectroscopy was also used to quantify the unreacted silica and amorphous calcium aluminosilicate hydrates formed, C-S-H and C-A-S-H for short. From ²⁹Si NMR spectra, the amount of Si incorporated into different phases was estimated. Si and Al concentrations, deduced by NMR, transmission electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectrometry, and Rietveld analysis of both X-ray and neutron data, indicate that only a part of available Si is incorporated in katoite structures.     

Shape-selective isopropylation of naphthalene over H–mordenite catalysts for environmentally friendly synthesis of 2,6-dialkylnaphthalene

Recent development of advanced polymer materials such as polyethylene naphthalate, polybutylene naphthalate and liquid crystalline polymers has created an increasing demand for 2,6-dialkylnaphthalene, which has spurred interest in shape-selective naphthalene alkylation. This work deals with mordenite-catalyzed shape-selective naphthalene isopropylation to produce 2,6-diisopropylnaphthalene (2,6-DIPN). Effects of dealumination of mordenite on the structural and acidic characteristics and on the shape selectivity and activity were examined by physicochemical analysis, TPD, solid-state ²⁷Al and ²⁹Si MAS NMR, XRD, as well as catalytic alkylation reactions. Dealumination removes octahedral Al species as well as tetrahedral Al species, decreases the unit cell dimensions and reduces the number of strong acid sites in mordenites. Proper dealumination can improve selectivity to 2,6-DIPN from 33 to 61 % and significantly increases 2,6/2,7 ratio. Improved selectivity to 2,6-DIPN upon proper dealumination was attributed to the decrease in mordenite acidity, reduction in unit cell dimension and removal of some strong acid sites. However, neither the change in selectivity nor that in activity is a simple function of dealumination degree or SiO₂/Al₂O₃ ratio. Some minor difference in the apparent framework SiO₂/Al₂O₃ ratio can result in a major difference in activity or selectivity. There exist optimum conditions of dealumination as well as optimum reaction conditions for achieving higher selectivity to 2,6-DIPN.
