Abstract: | The reaction of copper salts with AlPO4-5 or Vv-VAPO-5 under acidic (CuCl2, pH adjusted to 2) but especially basic conditions (Cu(NH3)

, pH adjusted to 9) gives ion incorporations greater than expected by a simple ion exchange mechanism (both AlPO4-5 and Vv-VAPO-5 could be expected to have no cation exchange capacity). Ion incorporation is proposed to occur initially at defect sites, and examination of the ESR spectrum of a dehydrated, evacuated CuCl2-exchanged AlPO4-5 shows that these defect sites give rise to a number of unique environments upon CuII incorporation. The CuCl2-exchanged VAPO-5 retains a significant toluene accessibility to the Vv sites in the VAPO-5. However, the toluene accessibility in the Cu(NH3)

-exchanged VAPO-5 is significantly reduced and we propose this is due to a combination of the presence of crystalline CuO and structural collapse from reaction with base (NH4OH). The ability of treatment with base (NH4OH, pH 13) to restrict access of toluene to the Vv sites of the original VAPO-5 was verified in a separate experiment. |
