TEMPLATE-FREE AND ALKALI-FREE SYNTHESIZED SILICATES WITH MFI-STRUCTURE -A COMPARATIVE STUDY
ABSTRACT Zeolites and gallosilicates with an MFI-structure which were crystallized from inorganic reaction systems and from alkali-free, tetrapropylammonlumbromide (TPABr) containing systems are compared. The strength, nature and distribution of the acidic sites were determined by FTIR-spectroscopy, TPD, electron microprobing, 29 si, 27 Al and 1 H MAS NMR spectroscopy. The influences of the different trivalent elements as well as the strength, type and distribution of the acidic sites on the catalytic performance of the different MFI-silicates are discussed.
Anthraquinones formation on zeolites with BEA structure
Publisher Summary Zeolites with BEA structure are in focus mainly in the field of conversion of hydrocarbons. However, their unique physico-chemical properties let to suppose that these systems can be successfully used in reactions of organic synthesis. Such zeolites can be used as catalysts for the synthesis of large organic molecules. The interaction of phthalic anhydride with aromatic hydrocarbons is a subject for investigation, both for science purposes and for industrial applications. The use of zeolites in this reaction is an example of the acylation of aromatics on solid-acid catalysts; on the other hand, such a study creates the possibilities of developing more appropriate technolog…
