C. Paze et al., Comparative IR and H-1-MAS NMR study of adsorption of CD3CN on zeolite H-beta: evidence of the presence of two families of bridged Bronsted sites, PCCP PHYS C, 1(10), 1999, pp. 2627-2629
The IR and H-1-MAS NMR spectroscopy of zeolite H-beta in interaction with C
D3CN is described, Two families of strong Si(OH)AI Bronsted sites have been
clearly distinguished: a first family, characterized by an NMR signal at 4
.4 ppm and an IR peak at 3614 cm(-1) (isolated bridged hydroxys) and a seco
nd family, characterized by a broad band in the 3-7 ppm NMR range and in th
e 3600-3200 cm(-1) IR range, due to bridged hydroxys which are perturbed by
H-bond interactions with the zeolitic framework. This last family of hydro
xys form weaker adducts with acetonitrile.
