Abstract
Hydrothermal syntheses and crystal structures of five zeolite edingtonite analogues are presented. For the first time, the edingtonite framework topology is assembled using an amine-assisted synthesis approach with either 1,2-diaminopropane or 1,2-diamino-2-methylpropane. These materials are created in the cobalt phosphate system with a small concentration of trivalent cations (Al3+ and Ga3+) incorporated into the framework for the host−guest charge matching. ACP-EDI1 and GCP-EDI1 are monoclinic, whereas ACP-EDI2, ACP-EDI3, and GCP-EDI2 are tetragonal (ACP = aluminum cobalt phosphate; GCP = gallium cobalt phosphate). The difference in lattice symmetries between ACP-EDI1 and ACP-EDI2 (or GCP-EDI1 and GCP-EDI2) is related to the synthesis conditions. All five structures have three-dimensional 8-ring channels along the crystallographic [001], [110], and [110] directions, regardless of the difference in symmetry. Amine molecules are more ordered in the monoclinic phases than in the tetragonal phases, and the...
