DoctorZeolites and related materials, an extraordinary class of microporous, crystalline solids with regular and well-defined channels and cavities, continue to find new applications in adsorption, separation, and catalysis. Consequently, there is still need for synthesizing zeolitic materials with novel framework structures and/or compositions. It was in the early 1960s when Barrer first introduced tetramethylammonium into the synthesis mixture of Si-rich zeolite A. Since then, the use of alkylamines and alkylammonium ions as organic structure-directing agents (OSDAs) in zeolite synthesis, both with and without inorganic species present, has enabled discovery of a great number of novel zeolites. In this thesis we have synthesized a number...
