A highly stable and hierarchical tetrathiafulvalene-based metal organic framework with improved performance as a solid catalyst
[EN] Herein we report the synthesis of a tetrathiafulvalene (TTF)-based MOF, namely MUV-2, which shows a non-interpenetrated hierarchical crystal structure with mesoporous one-dimensional channels of ca. 3 nm and orthogonal microporous channels of ca. 1 nm. This highly stable MOF (aqueous solution with pH values ranging from 2 to 11 and different organic solvents), which possesses the well-known [Fe3(¿3-O)(COO)6] secondary building unit, has proven to be an efficient catalyst for the aerobic oxidation of dibenzothiophenes.
Isostructural compartmentalized spin-crossover coordination polymers for gas confinement
[EN] Here we present two FeII coordination polymers that possess discrete compartments suitable for CO2 physisorption despite the lack of permanent channels. The two crystalline materials, of general formula [Fe(btzbp)3](X)2 (X = ClO4 or BF4), present voids of ca. 250 Å3, which each can accommodate up to two CO2 molecules. The abrupt spin transition can be modified upon CO2 sorption, and different magnetic behaviour is observed depending on the number of molecules sorbed.

Structure-reactivity relationship for aromatics transalkylation and isomerization process with TNU-9, MCM-22 and ZSM-5 zeolites, and their industrial implications
[EN] TNU-9 is a medium pore zeolite with a complex tridimensional channel system. Its catalytic properties have been studied in some reactions that involve the BTX fraction, such as benzene and toluene alkylation with methanol, ethanol or isopropanol. These reactions use in practice medium pore zeolites such as ZSM-5 (MFI) or MCM-22 (MWW), and the selectivities obtained with TNU-9 are compared and analyzed from the point of view of the zeolite structure and pore topology, as well as from its possible industrial application. For benzene alkylation to give ethylbenzene (EB), TNU-9 is an active and selective catalyst with selectivities to EB much higher than ZSM-5 and close to those of the ind…
Determination of the Pore Topology of Zeolite IM-5 by Means of Catalytic Test Reactions and Hydrocarbon Adsorption Measurements
Abstract The pore topology of a recently synthesized zeolite IM-5 has been determined by means of catalytic test reactions, i.e., n -decane hydroisomerization–cracking, m -xylene isomerization–disproportionation, n -hexadecane isodewaxing, and adsorption–microcalorimetry of molecules with different sizes and shapes ( n -hexane, toluene, m -xylene, and 1,3,5 trimethylbenzene). It has been found that the channel network consists of a system of unidirectional 10 MR with lobes or side pockets, or crossing 10 membered ring pores with a pore diameter somewhat smaller than those in ZSM-5. This structure offers interesting shape selectivity features for catalytic reactions.
Mild Hydrocracking of Vacuum Gasoil over NiMo-Beta Zeolite Catalysts: The Role of the Location of the NiMo Phases and the Crystallite Size of the Zeolite
Abstract Mild hydrocracking composite catalysts based on NiMo/γ-Al2O3-Beta zeolite have been prepared and the influence of the location of the NiMo phases has been studied. A good hydrocracking activity and the highest HDS conversion was found during the hydrocracking of a vacuum gasoil with the composite catalyst where the NiMo is located on the alumina component and then mixed with the zeolite in a proportion of 1 : 1 by weight. The crystal size of the beta zeolite had a significative influence on the catalytic behaviour, being better the smaller the crystallite size is. The small crystallite beta-based catalyst displayed a higher hydrocracking activity than conventional USY and silica-al…
Solvent-free synthesis of ZIFs: a route toward the elusive Fe(II) analogue of ZIF-8
Herein we report the synthesis of an elusive metal-organic framework, the iron(II) analogue of ZIF-8 with the formula Fe(2-methylimidazolate) , here denoted as MUV-3. The preparation of this highly interesting porous material, inaccessible by common synthetic procedures, occurs in a solvent-free reaction upon addition of an easily detachable template molecule, yielding single crystals of MUV-3. This methodology can be extended to other metals and imidazolate derivatives, allowing the preparation of ZIF-8, ZIF-67, and the unprecedented iron(II) ZIFs Fe(2-ethylimidazolate) and Fe(2-methylbenzimidazolate) . The different performance of MUV-3 toward NO sorption, in comparison to ZIF-8, results …
Gas confinement in compartmentalized coordination polymers for highly selective sorption
Discrimination between different gases is an essential aspect for industrial and environmental applications involving sensing and separation. Several classes of porous materials have been used in this context, including zeolites and more recently MOFs. However, to reach high selectivities for the separation of gas mixtures is a challenging task that often requires the understanding of the specific interactions established between the porous framework and the gases. Here we propose an approach to obtain an enhanced selectivity based on the use of compartmentalized coordination polymers, named CCP-1 and CCP-2, which are crystalline materials comprising isolated discrete cavities. These compar…
The benefit of multipore zeolites: Catalytic behaviour of zeolites with intersecting channels of different sizes for alkylation reactions
Abstract The catalytic behaviour of two multipore zeolites containing channels of different sizes, SSZ-33 (10 windows × 12 MR) and ITQ-22 (8 × 10 × 12 MR pores), for alkylation of benzene with ethanol and benzene with isopropanol or propylene, has been studied and compared to that of zeolites with intersecting channels of the same size, ZSM-5 (10 × 10 MR channels) and Beta (12 × 12 MR channels), which are industrially used for the above-mentioned process. For the alkylation of benzene with ethanol in gas phase, ITQ-22 behaves like the 10 MR ZSM-5 with respect to ethylbenzene selectivity, while the behaviour of SSZ-33 is close to that of a 12 MR zeolite such as Beta. For the alkylation of be…
