Understanding the synthesis and reactivity of ADORable zeolites using NMR spectroscopy

Zeolites remain one of the most important classes industrial catalysts used today, and with urgent drive for transition from petrochemical to renewable feedstocks, there is a renewed interest in developing new types zeolite. Recent synthetic advances field have included development assembly-disassembly-organisation-reassembly (ADOR) method.
