Abstract

But-1-yne has been adsorbed at room temperature on a series of LiNa, Na and CsNaX and Y zeolites and also on CsNaX,9Cs and CsNaY,9Cs samples containing nine Cs atoms occluded by a unit cell. An IR study of the 3000–2800 cm−1 frequency range clearly showed that but-1-yne isomerized into but-2-yne on CsNaX,9Cs whereas the observation of a band near 1950 cm−1 in the case of CsNaY,9Cs characterized the formation of buta-1,2-diene. Such partial transformation of but-1-yne to isomers did not occur on LiNa and Na samples, allowing one to study the basicity of such zeolites from the ν(CH) shift which decreases in the following order: NaX > LiNaX > NaY > LiNaY. The main feature is the observation of at least two perturbed ν(CH) bands for the NaX and NaY samples, revealing the heterogeneity of the basic sites. This result is discussed taking into account the presence of cations in different positions.
