  • Chapter

Solid-State NMR in Zeolite Catalysis

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Chemistry ((LNC,volume 103))

Abstract

This chapter introduces the application of solid-state NMR to investigate the acid features of solid acid catalysts, which have been widely used in advanced petrochemical processes because of their environmental friendliness, high product selectivity, and easy product separation. The acidic features of solid acids including acid type, acid concentration, acid distribution, acid strength, and the spatial interaction of acid sites are essential factors in dictating their reactivity and selectivity. Solid-state NMR is presented to be a powerful tool for the characterization of the surface acidic properties of solid acid catalysts including zeolites, oxides and heteropolyacids etc. The acid strength of solid acids can be quantitatively measured from the chemical shifts of adsorbed probe molecules such as pyridine, acetone, trialkylphosphine oxides, and trimethylphosphine. The spatial proximity and synergetic effect of various acid sites on solid acid catalysts can be ascertained by either double-resonance or two-dimensional (2D) double-quantum magic-angle spinning (DQ MAS) NMR spectroscopy.
