ABSTRACT:

A new method of combining the shape-selective characteristics of zeolites with a group VIII metal component is described. It involves the following sequence of steps: (1) synthesis of an aluminoferrisilicate (AFS) zeolite, having a crystal structure analogous to zeolite ZSM-5, but which incorporates ferric ions into the structure during synthesis; (2) removal of the organic base used as a template in crystallization of the AFS zeolite; (3) reaction of the AFS zeolite with a transition metal complex anion in aqueous solution to precipitate an inclusion compound in the AFS zeolite, and (4) reduction of the inclusion compound with hydrogen at elevated temperature.
