NMR crystallography of monovalent cations in inorganic matrixes: Li+ siting and the local structure of Li+ sites in ferrierites†
Abstract
7Li–7Li correlation MAS NMR spectroscopy, interpreted using periodic DFT including molecular dynamics conformational sampling of Li+ sites, is employed to obtain the siting of Li+ at exchangeable positions of ferrierites and the local structure of these Li+ sites. The former is controlled by the Al siting in the zeolite framework.
