The ionothermal synthesis of cobalt aluminophosphate zeolite frameworks.
Ionothermal synthesis, the use of an ionic liquid as both solvent and structure-directing agent, has been used to synthesize three different cobalt aluminophosphate zeolites. Two of the materials are isostructural with solids prepared previously and have the AEI and SOD framework types. SIZ-7 is a novel zeolite structures that is closely related to the family of 8-ring zeolites consisting of the MER, GIS, and PHI frameworks. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction of SIZ-7 indicates that the distribution of cobalt among the four possible tetrahedral sites is unequal.
