Abstract

On weakly rehydrated dealuminated zeolites and amorphous silica–aluminas the presence of different types of acidic centres can be ascertained by proton magic-angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance (1H MAS NMR) measurements. A 1H NMR line at ca. 6.5 ppm is caused by water adsorption on Lewis-acid sites. The shift of the 1H NMR line of Bronsted-acid sites (bridging OH groups) to lower field for hydrated samples can be interpreted quantitatively by a fast proton exchange between water molecules, bridging OH groups and hydroxonium ions.
