On the Nature of Water Bound to a Solid Acid Catalyst
Abstract
The nature of the species formed when water interacts with Brønsted acid sites in a microporous solid acid catalyst, HSAPO-34, was studied by powder neutron diffraction and infrared spectroscopy. Previous infrared and computational studies had failed to unambiguously establish whether water is protonated to form hydronium (H 3 O + ) ions or is merely hydrogen-bonded to acid sites inside the zeolite. Our experiments clearly showed that both species are present: An H 3 O + ion is found in the eight-ring channel of the zeolite and a second water molecule is hydrogen-bonded to an acid site on the six-ring.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
