Hydrogenolysis of hydroxymatairesinol on Y derived catalysts: a computational study
2010
Hydrogenolysis of 7-hydroxymatairesinol (HMR) to matairesinol (MAT) occurs on palladium supported acidic catalysts. HMR has three stereochemical centres and naturally exists as a mixture of two diastereoisomers, namely RRR-HMR and SRR-HMR. The latter is significantly more reactive than the former, in the reaction above. In order to elucidate the hydrogenolysis mechanism, simple surface events involving HMR derivatives on aluminated faujasite (H-Y) fragments were simulated by quantum chemical calculations. The metallic function of a Pd/H-Y acidic catalyst was also mimicked by a minimal palladium cluster. Stereochemical evidences pointed already out that water β-elimination on the epimeric ce…
Influence de la symétrie et de la taille de la molécule adsorbée sur le processus d'adsorption des composés éthyléniques sur une zéolithe de topologi…
2005
This manuscript lies within the scope of the understanding of the stepped isotherm observed during adsorption, on MFI zeolites, of some organic compounds which have a similar size to that of the pore opening of zeolite. During this work, the process of adsorption of ethylene and tetramethylethylene is initially studied by gravimetry and then by in situ infrared spectroscopy. This last technique enables to follow simultaneously the modifications of the adsorbent and the adsorbate. The analysis of these data lets suppose that the step in adsorption isotherm can be explained by taking account simultaneously of the symmetry and the size of the admolecule. In addition to the infrared bands chara…
Aurophilicity as a cofactor in crystal engineering. Dicyanoaurate(I) anion as a building block in a novel Co(II)–Au(I) bimetallic assembly
2002
A 2D grid-shaped cyanide-bridged Co(II)–Au(I) bimetallic coordination polymer, [Co(DMF)2{Au(CN)2}2], has been prepared from the [Au(CN)2]2 building block; sheets associate pair-wise by aurophilic interactions and the compound exhibits zeolite-like properties.

Studies of Reversible Hydrogen Binding in Nano- Sized Materials
2015
Experimental review of materials suitable for reversible hydrogen binding in nanoporous and nanosized structures of materials, based on natural zeolite (clinoptilolite) and graphene (exfoliated electrochemically from raw graphite), were analyzed. Characterization of materials with SEM, XRD, EDS and Raman spectroscopy methods and aspects of synthesis of a nanostructured zeolite and a few-layer graphite material was done in this work. It was established from gas analyzer results that hydrogen mass fraction in natural zeolite ranged from 1.1 % to 1.4 %, but in the few-layer graphite material − from 0.39 % to 0.46 %.
Structure-reactivity relationship for aromatics transalkylation and isomerization process with TNU-9, MCM-22 and ZSM-5 zeolites, and their industrial…
2011
[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…
Structure solution of zeolites by automated electron diffraction tomography - Impact and treatment of preferential orientation
2014
Abstract In this paper the reliability of structure solution of nano-crystalline porous compounds with preferred orientation based on automated electron diffraction tomography (ADT) is discussed. It will be shown that the limitations of the data acquisition geometry can be overcome by completing the missing diffraction data with additional diffraction information. Apart from different ways of sample preparation, data merging with either additional ADT data sets or intensities derived from X-ray powder diffraction comprise an effective way to improve the accuracy of the structure solution.
Applications of automated diffraction tomography (ADT) on nanocrystalline porous materials
2013
Abstract Many porous materials, both inorganic and hybrid organic–inorganic, can only be synthesized as nanocrystals. X-ray powder diffraction delivers one-dimensional data from the overall sample and is therefore often limited by peak overlap at low or medium resolution and by peak broadening. Thus, structure solution of materials with large unit cells and low symmetry, disorder or pseudosymmetry, or available only in polyphasic systems, turns out to be problematic or even impossible. Electron diffraction allows collecting three-dimensional structure information from nanocrystalline materials, but is traditionally biased by low completeness of the diffraction data, dynamical scattering and…
Using FOCUS to solve zeolite structures from three-dimensional electron diffraction data
2013
The programFOCUS[Grosse-Kunstleve, McCusker & Baerlocher (1997).J. Appl. Cryst.30, 985–995] was originally developed to solve zeolite structures from X-ray powder diffraction data. It uses zeolite-specific chemical information (three-dimensional 4-connected framework structure with known bond distances and angles) to supplement the diffraction data. In this way, it is possible to compensate, at least in part, for the ambiguity of the reflection intensities resulting from reflection overlap, and the program has proven to be quite successful. Recently, advances in electron microscopy have led to the development of automated diffraction tomography (ADT) and rotation electron diffraction (R…
