HPM-16, a Stable Interrupted Zeolite with a Multidimensional Mixed Medium-Large Pore System Containing Supercages.

ABSTRACT: HPM-16 is a highly porous germanosilicate zeolite with an interrupted framework that contains a three-dimensional system of 12+10×10(12)×12+10-membered ring (MR) pores. The 10(12) MR pore in the b direction is a 10 MR pore with long 12 MR stretches forming 30 Å long tubular supercages. Along one direction the 10 MR pores are fused, meaning that the separation between adjacent pores consists of a single tetrahedron that is, additionally, connected to only three additional tetrahedra (a Q³ ). These fused pores are thus decorated by T-OH groups along the whole diffusion path, creating a hydrophilic region embedded in an otherwise essentially hydrophobic environment. The structure is built from highly porous 12×12×12 MR uninterrupted layers that are connected to each other through Q
