Experimental Evidence for the Relationship between Al Site Distribution and Catalytic Performance in Methanol-to-Olefins Reaction over ZSM-5 Zeolite

Jing Ma,

et al.

Abstract: The designed synthesis of zeolite catalysts, especially in the control of the framework structure and heteroatom distribution, offers advantages to their catalytic performance. In the methanol-to-olefins reaction, the shape of intermediate species defined by the reaction space surrounding an acid site impacts the reaction mechanism and, in turn, the product selectivity. However, because of the difficulty in observing the active intermediate species, presenting a clear relationship between the catalytic site (i… Show more

“…MFI is a low-symmetry framework (orthorhombic phase) with 12 crystallographic distinct T-sites and 26 distinct oxygen atoms (O f ) located around 10-membered ring (10-MR) straight and sinusoidal channels (∼0.55 nm diameter) or channel intersections (∼0.70 nm diameter, Figure A,C). , The conventional organic SDA (OSDA) used to crystallize MFI is tetra- n -propylammonium (TPA + ), which contains a quaternary N + center that is occluded in channel intersections (Figure D) and confers energetic preference to position Al in T-sites closest to this N + center . This suggests that altering the molecular structure of the SDAs and how they occlude within porous zeolite voids can bias Al siting in the lattice, as has been inferred for MFI synthesized using different organic molecules from changes in heuristic probe reactions (e.g., constraint index) used to assess the local topology around active sites. However, a mechanistic link between SDA structure and Al siting and, in turn, transition state stability for MFI, is needed to fully realize the potential of designing SDAs that can place active sites at distinct environments, which stabilize desired transition states and reactive intermediates, and allow synthesizing, a priori , zeolites of tailored reactivity. …”
