1H–31P HETCOR NMR elucidates the nature of acid sites in zeolite HZSM-5 probed with trimethylphosphine oxide

Abstract

Two-dimensional 1H–31P heteronuclear correlation NMR of trimethylphosphine oxide (TMPO) adsorbed in zeolites, in tandem with DFT calculations, challenges previous one-dimensional 31P NMR assignments, enabling the unambiguous discrimination of Brønsted and Lewis acid sites, extending the understanding of TMPO:Brønsted complexes formed with distinct stoichiometries at the HZSM-5 zeolite surface, and the proton-transfer mechanism.
