The crystal structure of a new covalent organic framework, termed COF-320, is determined by single-crystal 3D electron diffraction using the rotation (RED) method for data collection. COF crystals are prepared an imine condensation tetra-(4-anilyl)methane and 4,4'-biphenyldialdehyde in 1,4-dioxane at 120 °C to produce highly porous 9-fold interwoven diamond net. COF-320 exhibits permanent porosity with Langmuir surface area 2400 m(2)/g methane total uptake 15.0 wt % (176 cm(3)/cm(3)) 25 80...
The influence of different iron carbides on the activity and selectivity iron-based Fischer–Tropsch catalysts has been studied. Different carbide phases are obtained by pretreatment a binary Fe/SiO2 model catalyst (prepared coprecipitation method) to gas atmospheres (syngas, CO, or H2). phase structures, compositions, particle sizes characterized systematically XRD, XAFS, MES, TEM. It is found that in syngas-treated only χ-Fe5C2 formed. In CO-treated catalyst, Fe7C3 with bimodal size...

Two families of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), MIL-88 and MIL-101 built by trinuclear transition metal (TM) clusters (TM = Cr, Fe, or Sc), have been known for several years, but their syntheses are often reported separately. In fact, these MOFs polymorphs, framework isomers: they assembled from the same secondary building units organic linkers, connectivity components differs. Here we report first time synthesis vanadium MOF MIL-88B(V) compare its parameters to those MIL-47(V) recently...
The synthesis of crystalline microporous materials containing large pores is in high demand by industry, especially for the use these as catalysts chemical processes involving bulky molecules. An extra-large–pore silicoaluminophosphate with 16-ring openings, ITQ-51, has been synthesized aromatic proton sponges organic structure-directing agents. Proton show exceptional properties directing extra-large zeolites because their unusually basicity combined size and rigidity. This material stable...

Electron diffraction is a complementary technique to single-crystal X-ray and powder for structure solution of unknown crystals. Crystals too small be studied by or complex solved can electron diffraction. The main drawbacks have been the difficulties in collecting complete three-dimensional data conventional methods very time-consuming collection. In addition, intensities suffer from dynamical scattering. Recently, new method, rotation (RED), was developed, which overcome reduce effects. A...
