Localized Boron Sites in Large Pore Borosilicate Zeolite EMM-59 Determined by Electron Crystallography.

ABSTRACT: The structure of novel large pore borosilicate zeolite EMM-59 (|C₁₉H₄₂N₂|₈[B_5.2Si_218.8O₄₄₈]) with localized framework boron sites was determined by using three-dimensional electron diffraction (3D ED) and scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) imaging. EMM-59 was synthesized using 2,2-(cyclopentane-1,1-diyl)bis(N,N-diethyl-N-methylethan-1-aminium) as an organic structure-directing agent (OSDA). The framework has a three-dimensional intersecting channel system delimited by 12 × 10 × 10-ring openings and contains 28 T and 60 oxygen atoms in the asymmetric unit, making it the most complex monoclinic zeolite. The 3D ED data collected from as-made EMM-59 under cryogenic conditions reveale
