Abstract

13C magic-angle-spinning (MAS) NMR, along with the results of Fourier transform infrared and gas chromatographic analysis, has been used to identify the hydrocarbon products, and to distinguish mobile from static species, formed from methanol within the pores of a H-SAPO-34 catalyst. The reasons for the differences in product distribution within the pores (monitored by MAS NMR) and in the gas phase (monitored chromatographically) are discussed.
