In Situ Solid-State NMR Investigation of Catalytic Reactions on Zeolites

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Solid-State NMR in Zeolite Catalysis

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Chemistry ((LNC,volume 103))

Abstract

The design of an efficient catalyst for a specific reaction depends on the understanding of the structure–activity relationship, which requires the fundamental knowledge about the reaction mechanisms. This chapter deals with the development and application of in situ solid-state NMR in the investigation of reactions catalyzed by zeolites. The state of the art of the in situ MAS NMR approaches that are performed at either bath or flow conditions were described. A comprehensive introduction was given to the mechanistic study of the catalytic reactions by in situ NMR with focus on the activation of light alkanes (C1-C3) on metal-modified zeolites as well as methanol-to-hydrocarbons conversion on acidic zeolites. The identification of active intermediates and analysis of the kinetics by in situ NMR enable detailed information about the reaction mechanisms to be obtained. An outlook is discussed on the development of the in situ MAS NMR technique that will contribute to the further advancement in understanding zeolite catalysis.
