| Abstract | Acid-mediated synthesis of ordered mesoporous aluminosilicates (OMAS) with medium-to-strong Brønsted acid sites and trivalent aluminium exclusively in a tetrahedral framework structure is realized by a newly devised intrinsic hydrolysis method. In this way, we have synthesized a series of well-ordered OMAS, e.g., H-AlSBA-15 and H-AlIITM-56, which are otherwise difficult to distinguish under acidic conditions owing to very different hydrolysis rates of both silicon and aluminium sources used for preparation as well as easy dissociation of thus formed Al–O–Si bonds. This novel intrinsic hydrolysis approach, however, relies mainly on similar hydrolysis rates of constituent inorganic species leading to efficient condensation. Thus, the innovative methodology using tetraethyl orthosilicate and aluminium citrate, respectively, as tetravalent silicon and trivalent aluminium as precursors facilitates the formation of high quality OMAS with a narrow pore size distribution, thicker walls, and trivalent aluminium in a tetrahedral framework structure with a high aluminium content, as evidenced by a battery of characterization techniques, viz., XRD, XRF, SEM, TEM and BET. The resulting materials, in turn, generate Brønsted acid sites in the aluminosilicate matrix, with the absence of the usually encountered Lewis acid sites, viz., extra-framework and/or non-framework species, as confirmed by both 27Al MAS-NMR and NH3-TPD studies. All the prepared catalysts exhibit excellent activity towards the tertiary butylation of phenol, and the high activity of the catalysts is attributed to the unique and exclusive presence of medium-to-strong acid sites in the OMAS matrix. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
