N2 - Zeolites represent an important group of heterogeneous
catalysts and are heavily used in the petrochemical and
refining industries.[1] Since their discovery, zeolites with MFI
topology, namely ZSM-5, have been utilized in a number of
large-scale industrial applications. The unique combination of
acidic properties and pore architecture[2] enabled their use as
solid acid catalysts in the alkylation of arenes,[3] the oligomerization
of light olefins,[4] and the methanol-to-hydrocarbon
reaction.[5] The internal crystallographic architecture, microand
mesoporosity, as well as the 3D distribution of Brønsted
acid sites play a crucial role in the catalytic performance of
zeolites.
