Abstract

We report tetrahydroborate aluminosilicate, gallosilicate and aluminogermanate sodalites studied by ¹¹B, ¹H and ²³Na MAS NMR spectroscopy. The spectral parameters are consistent with the local environments of each investigated nucleus obtained from the crystal structures. The ¹¹B MAS NMR spectra exhibit a sharp narrow line at about -49.0 ppm, which is assigned to BH₄^- enclathrated into the sodalite framework matrix. The lineshape of the signal shows no quadrupolar interactions due to discreteness and high symmetry of the BH₄^- unit as well as possible fast dynamic site exchange of hydrogen atoms. The ²³Na MAS NMR signals also show a narrow Gaussian lineshape, which clearly indicates a single type of sodium coordination, and a centrosymmetrical charge distribution around the sodium atom. The ¹H MAS NMR spectra can clearly distinguish between hydrogen in BH₄^- anions (-0.6 ppm), H₃O₂^- anions (1.2 ppm) and H₂O molecules (5.0 ppm). The structural properties of BH₄^- intercalation into sodalite framework matrix help connect the microporous materials to hydride-containing A, X and Y type zeolites.
