SYNTHESIS OF NOVEL MOLECULAR SIEVES USING A METAL COMPLEX AS A TEMPLATE

摘要

The synthesis and characterization of novel molecular sieves containing bis(pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)cobalt(III) ion are described. Several types of molecular sieves were prepared using the cobalt metal complex as a template that was shown to be incorporated as a guest molecule within the molecular sieve. Molecular sieves prepared using bis(pentamethylcylclopentadienyl)cobalt(III) ion as template were characterized as having a pore size at least as large as 7 Ä. Other molecular sieves were also prepared using bis(cyclopentadienyl)cobalt(III) templates. The compounds are attractive as catalysts in a wide range of applications.
