Structure Elucidation and Computationally Guided Synthesis of SSZ-43: A One-Dimensional 12-Ring Zeolite with Unique Sinusoidal Channels.

ABSTRACT: The structure of zeolite SSZ-43 was determined by 3D electron diffraction, synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction, and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. The SSZ-43 framework forms one-dimensional, sinusoidal 12-ring channels from 5⁴ 6¹ butterfly units commonly found in other zeolites, but with unique 6.5×6.5 Å apertures and 12-ring 6.5×8.9 Å windows perpendicular to the channels. SSZ-43 crystals are intergrowths of two polytypes: ≈90 % orthorhombic polytype A with ABAB stacking of the 12-rings, and ≈10 % monoclinic polytype B with ABCABC stacking. Molecular modeling performed on the idealized Si-SSZ-43 structure along with empirical relationships for zeolite selectivity in boron- and aluminum-containing synthesis gels were used in a combined approach to design new di-quaternary ammonium organic structure-directing agents (OSDAs). Experimental trials demonstrated that the new OSDAs produced SSZ-43 over a broader range of compositions than previous mono-quaternary OSDAs.

ITQ-54: a multi-dimensional extra-large pore zeolite with 20 × 14 × 12-ring channels.

Project description:A multi-dimensional extra-large pore silicogermanate zeolite, named ITQ-54, has been synthesised by in situ decomposition of the N,N-dicyclohexylisoindolinium cation into the N-cyclohexylisoindolinium cation. Its structure was solved by 3D rotation electron diffraction (RED) from crystals of ca. 1 ?m in size. The structure of ITQ-54 contains straight intersecting 20 × 14 × 12-ring channels along the three crystallographic axes and it is one of the few zeolites with extra-large channels in more than one direction. ITQ-54 has a framework density of 11.1 T atoms per 1000 Å3, which is one of the lowest among the known zeolites. ITQ-54 was obtained together with GeO2 as an impurity. A heavy liquid separation method was developed and successfully applied to remove this impurity from the zeolite. ITQ-54 is stable up to 600 °C and exhibits permanent porosity. The structure was further refined using powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) data for both as-made and calcined samples.

A multi-dimensional quasi-zeolite with 12 × 10 × 7-ring channels demonstrates high thermal stability and good gas adsorption selectivity.

Project description:A novel quasi-zeolite PKU-15, with a rare 3-dimensional structure containing interconnected large (12-ring), medium (10-ring) and small (7-ring) multi-pore channels, was hydrothermally synthesised and characterised. A unique tri-bridging O2- anion is found to be encapsulated in the cage-like (Ge,Si)12O31 building unit and energetically stabilises the PKU-15 framework. The removal of this oxygen atom would convert PKU-15 into a hypothetical zeolite PKU-15H. Thus, PKU-15 can be considered as a unique 'quasi-zeolite', which bridges porous germanates and zeolites. Owing to the absence of terminal Ge-OH groups in its structure, PKU-15 shows a remarkably high thermal stability of up to 600 °C. PKU-15 is also the first microporous germanate that exhibits permanent porosity, with a BET area of 428 m2 g-1 and a good adsorption affinity toward CO2.

A Stable Silanol Triad in the Zeolite Catalyst SSZ-70.

Project description:Nests of three silanol groups are located on the internal pore surface of calcined zeolite SSZ-70. 2D 1 H double/triple-quantum single-quantum correlation NMR experiments enable a rigorous identification of these silanol triad nests. They reveal a close proximity to the structure directing agent (SDA), that is, N,N'-diisobutyl imidazolium cations, in the as-synthesized material, in which the defects are negatively charged (silanol dyad plus one charged SiO- siloxy group) for charge balance. It is inferred that ring strain prevents the condensation of silanol groups upon calcination and removal of the SDA to avoid energetically unfavorable three-rings. In contrast, tetrad nests, created by boron extraction from B-SSZ-70 at various other locations, are not stable and silanol condensation occurs. Infrared spectroscopic investigations of adsorbed pyridine indicate an enhanced acidity of the silanol triads, suggesting important implications in catalysis.

Hydrogen Bonds Dominate Bronsted Acid Sites in Zeolite SSZ-42: A Classification of Their Diversity.

Project description:The zeolite catalyst SSZ-42 shows a remarkable high abundance (≈80 %) of hydrogen-bonded Brønsted acid sites (BAS), which are deshielded from the 1 H chemical shift of unperturbed BAS at typically 4 ppm. This is due to their interaction with neighboring oxygen atoms in the zeolite framework when oxygen alignments are suitable. The classification and diversity of hydrogen bonding is assessed by DFT calculations, showing that oval-shaped 6-rings and 5-rings allow for a stronger hydrogen bond to oxygen atoms on the opposite ring side, yielding higher experimental chemical shifts (δ (1 H)=6.4 ppm), than circular 6-rings (δ(1 H)=5.2 ppm). Cage-like structures and intra-tetrahedral interactions can also form hydrogen bonds. The alignment of oxygen atoms is expected to impact their role in the stabilization of intermediates in catalytic reactions, such as surface alkoxy groups and possibly transition states.

Evaluation of Co/SSZ-13 Zeolite Catalysts Prepared by Solid-Phase Reaction for NO-SCR by Methane.

Project description:Co/SSZ-13 zeolites were prepared by heating the finely dispersed mixture of NH4-SSZ-13 and different cobalt salts up to 550 °C. Investigations by thermogravimetry - differential scanning calorimetry - mass spectrometry provided new insight into details of the solid-state reaction. Formation of Co carrying hydrate melt or volatile species was shown to proceed from chloride, nitrate, or acetylacetonate Co precursor salts upon thermal treatment. This phase change allows the transport of the Co species into the zeolite pores. The reaction of the NH4+ or H+ zeolite cations and the mobile Co precursors generates vapor or gas products, readily leaving the zeolite pores, and cobalt ions in lattice positions suggesting that solid-state ion-exchange is the prevailing process. The obtained catalysts are of good activity and N2 selectivity in the CH4/NO-SCR reaction. The thermal treatment of acetate or formate salts give solid intermediates that are unable to get in contact and react with the cations in the zeolite micropores. These catalysts contain mainly Co-oxide clusters located on the outer surface of the zeolite crystallites and have poor catalytic performance.

SSZ-27: A Small-Pore Zeolite with Large Heart-Shaped Cavities Determined by Using Multi-crystal Electron Diffraction.

Project description:The high-silica zeolite SSZ-27 was synthesized using one of the isomers of the organic structure-directing agent that is known to produce the large-pore zeolite SSZ-26 (CON). The structure of the as-synthesized form was solved using multi-crystal electron diffraction data. Data were collected on eighteen crystals, and to obtain a high-quality and complete data set for structure refinement, hierarchical cluster analysis was employed to select the data sets most suitable for merging. The framework structure of SSZ-27 can be described as a combination of two types of cavities, one of which is shaped like a heart. The cavities are connected through shared 8-ring windows to create straight channels that are linked together in pairs to form a one-dimensional channel system. Once the framework structure was known, molecular modelling was used to find the best fitting isomer, and this, in turn, was isolated to improve the synthesis conditions for SSZ-27.

Pathological characteristics of liver sinusoidal thrombosis in COVID-19 patients: A series of 43 cases.

Project description:AimCoronavirus disease (COVID-19) is characterized by pneumonia with secondary damage to multiple organs including the liver. Liver injury (elevated alanine aminotransferase [ALT] and aspartate aminotransferase [AST]) often correlates with disease severity in COVID-19 patients. The aim of this study is to identify pathological microthrombi in COVID-19 patient livers by correlating their morphology with liver injury, and examine hyperfibrinogenemia and von Willebrand factor (vWF) as mechanisms of their formation.MethodsForty-three post-mortem liver biopsy samples from COVID-19 patients were obtained from Papa Giovanni XXIII Hospital in Bergamo, Italy. Three morphological features of microthrombosis (sinusoidal erythrocyte aggregation [SEA], platelet microthrombi [PMT], and fibrous thrombi) were evaluated.ResultsWe found liver sinusoidal microthrombosis in 23 COVID-19 patients (53%) was associated with a higher serum ALT and AST level compared to those without (ALT: 10-fold, p = 0.04; AST: 11-fold, p = 0.08). Of 43 livers, PMT and SEA were observed in 14 (33%) and 19 (44%) cases, respectively. Fibrous thrombi were not observed. Platelet microthrombi were associated with increased ALT (p < 0.01), whereas SEA was not (p = 0.73). In COVID-19 livers, strong vWF staining in liver sinusoidal endothelial cells was associated with significantly increased platelet adhesion (1.7-fold, p = 0.0016), compared to those with weak sinusoidal vWF (2-fold, p < 0.0001). Sinusoidal erythrocyte aggregation in 19 (83%) liver samples was mainly seen in zone 2. Livers with SEA had significantly higher fibrinogen (1.6-fold, p = 0.031) compared to those without SEA in COVID-19 patients.ConclusionsLiver PMT is a pathologically important thrombosis associated with liver injury in COVID-19, while SEA is a unique morphological feature of COVID-19 patient livers. Sinusoidal vWF and hyperfibrinogenemia could contribute to PMT and SEA formation.

Elucidation of Diels-Alder Reaction Network of 2,5-Dimethylfuran and Ethylene on HY Zeolite Catalyst.

Project description:The reaction of 2,5-dimethylfuran and ethylene to produce p-xylene represents a potentially important route for the conversion of biomass to high-value organic chemicals. Current preparation methods suffer from low selectivity and produce a number of byproducts. Using modern separation and analytical techniques, the structure of many of the byproducts produced in this reaction when HY zeolite is employed as a catalyst has been identified. From these data, a detailed reaction network is proposed demonstrating that hydrolysis and electrophilic alkylation reactions compete with the desired Diels-Alder/dehydration sequence. This information will allow the rational identification of more selective catalysts and more selective reaction conditions.

Maximizing sinusoidal channels of HZSM-5 for high shape-selectivity to p-xylene.

Project description:The shape-selective catalysis enabled by zeolite micropore's molecular-sized sieving is an efficient way to reduce the cost of chemical separation in the chemical industry. Although well studied since its discovery, HZSM-5's shape-selective capability has never been fully exploited due to the co-existence of its different-sized straight channels and sinusoidal channels, which makes the shape-selective p-xylene production from toluene alkylation with the least m-xylene and o-xylene continue to be one of the few industrial challenges in the chemical industry. Rather than modifications which promote zeolite shape-selectivity at the cost of stability and reactivity loss, here inverse Al zoned HZSM-5 with sinusoidal channels predominantly opened to their external surfaces is constructed to maximize the shape-selectivity of HZSM-5 sinusoidal channels and reach > 99 % p-xylene selectivity, while keeping a very high activity and good stability ( > 220 h) in toluene methylation reactions. The strategy shows good prospects for shape-selective control of molecules with tiny differences in size.

Insertion of N2 into the Channels of AFI Zeolite under High Pressure.

Project description:We present an experimental study of a new hybrid material where nitrogen is encapsulated in the channels of porous zeolite AlPO4-5 (AFI) single crystals by a high-pressure method. The high-pressure behavior of nitrogen confined inside the AFI nano-channels is then investigated by Raman spectroscopy up to 44 GPa. Under pressure, the Raman modes of confined nitrogen show behaviors different from those of the bulk nitrogen. After the return to atmospheric pressure, it is demonstrated that non-gaseous nitrogen can be effectively stabilized by being confined inside the intact AFI sample. This result provides new insight into nitrogen capture and storage technologies.
