Abstract
Zeolite-mediated catalytic cracking of alkanes is pivotal in the petrochemical and refining industry, breaking down heavier hydrocarbon feedstocks into fuels and chemicals. Its relevance also extends to emerging technologies such as biomass and plastic valorization. Zeolite catalysts, with shape selectivity and selective adsorption capabilities, enhance efficiency and sustainability due to their well-defined network of pores, dimensionality, cages/cavities, and channels. This study focuses on the alkane cracking over 10-membered ring (10-MR) zeolites under industrially relevant conditions. Through a series of characterizations, including operando UV-vis spectroscopy and solid-state NMR spectroscopy, we intend to address mechanistic debates about the alkane cracking mechanism, aiming to understand the dependence of product selectivity on zeolite topologies. The findings highlight topology-dependent mechanisms, particularly the role of intersectional void spaces in zeolite ZSM-5, influencing aromatic-based product selectivity. This work provides a unique understanding of zeolite-catalyzed hydrocarbon conversion, linking alkane activation steps to the traditional hydrocarbon pool mechanism, contributing to the fundamental knowledge of this crucial industrial process.

Abstract
The zeolite-catalyzed methanol-to-aromatics (MTA) process is a promising avenue for industrial decarbonization. This process predominantly utilizes 3-dimensional 10-member ring (10-MR) zeolites like ZSM-5 and ZSM-11, chosen for their confinement effect essential for aromatization. Current research mainly focuses on enhancing selectivity and mitigating catalyst deactivation by modulating zeolites' physicochemical properties. Despite the potential, the MTA technology is at a low Technology Readiness Level, hindered by mechanistic complexities in achieving the desired selectivity towards liquid aromatics. To bridge this knowledge gap, this study proposes a roadmap for MTA catalysis by strategically combining controlled catalytic experiments with advanced characterization methods (including operando conditions and "mobility-dependent" solid-state NMR spectroscopy). It identifies the descriptor-role of Koch-carbonylated intermediates, longer-chain hydrocarbons, and the zeolites' intersectional cavities in yielding preferential liquid aromatics selectivity. Understanding these selectivity descriptors and architectural impacts is vital, potentially advancing other zeolite-catalyzed emerging technologies.

Abstract
In acidic HZSM-5 zeolite, the reactivity of a methanol molecule interacting with the zeolite proton is amenable to modification via coadsorbing a stochiometric amount of an electron density donor E to form the [(E)(CH3OH)(HZ)] complex. The rate of the methanol in this complex undergoing dehydration to dimethyl ether was determined for a series of E with proton affinity (PA) ranging from 659 kJ mol-1 for C6F6 to 825 kJ mol-1 for C4H8O and was found to follow the expression: Ln(Rate) - Ln(RateN2) = β(PA - PAN2)γ, where E = N2 is the reference and β and γ are constants. This trend is probably due to the increased stability of the solvated proton in the [(E)(CH3OH)(HZ)] complex with increasing PA. Importantly, this is also observed in steady-state flow reactions when stoichiometric quantities of E are preadsorbed on the zeolite. As demonstrated with E being D2O, the effect on methanol reactivity diminishes when E is present in excess of the [(E)(CH3OH)(HZ)] complex. It is proposed that the methanol dehydration reaction involves [(E)(CH3OH)(CH3OH)(HZ)] as the transition state, which is supported by the isotopologue distribution of the initial dimethyl ether formed when a flow of CH3OH was passed over ZSM-5 containing one CD3OH per zeolite proton. The implication of this on the mechanism of catalytic methanol dehydration on HZSM-5 is discussed.

Abstract
Solid-state NMR spectroscopy (ssNMR) can provide details about the structure, host-guest/guest-guest interactions and dynamic behavior of materials at atomic length scales. A crucial use of ssNMR is for the characterization of zeolite catalysts that are extensively employed in industrial catalytic processes. This review aims to spotlight the recent advancements in ssNMR spectroscopy and its application to zeolite chemistry. We first review the current ssNMR methods and techniques that are relevant to characterize zeolite catalysts, including advanced multinuclear and multidimensional experiments, in situ NMR techniques and hyperpolarization methods. Of these, the methodology development on half-integer quadrupolar nuclei is emphasized, which represent about two-thirds of stable NMR-active nuclei and are widely present in catalytic materials. Subsequently, we introduce the recent progress in understanding zeolite chemistry with the aid of these ssNMR methods and techniques, with a specific focus on the investigation of zeolite framework structures, zeolite crystallization mechanisms, surface active/acidic sites, host-guest/guest-guest interactions, and catalytic reaction mechanisms.

Abstract
A methanol-based economy offers an efficient solution to current energy transition challenges, where the zeolite-catalyzed methanol-to-hydrocarbons (MTH) process would be a key enabler in yielding synthetic fuels/chemicals from renewable sources. Despite its original discovery over half a century ago over the zeolite ZSM-5, the practical application of this process in a CO2 -neutral scenario has faced several obstacles. One prominent challenge has been the intricate mechanistic complexities inherent in the MTH process over the zeolite ZSM-5, impeding its widespread adoption. This work takes a significant step forward by providing critical insights that bridge the gap in our understanding of the MTH process. It accomplishes this by connecting the (Koch-carbonylation-led) direct and dual cycle mechanisms, which operate during the early and steady-state phases of MTH catalysis, respectively. To unravel these mechanistic intricacies, we have performed catalytic and operando (i.e., UV/Vis coupled with an online mass spectrometer) and solid-state NMR spectroscopic-based investigations on the MTH process, involving co-feeding methanol and acetone (cf. a key Koch-carbonylated species), including selective isotope-labeling studies. Our iterative research approach revealed that (Koch-)carbonyl group selectively promotes the side-chain mechanism within the arene cycle of the dual cycle mechanism, impacting the preferential formation of BTX fraction (i.e., benzene-toluene-xylene) primarily.

Abstract
Zeolites are important inorganic crystalline microporous materials with a broad range of applications in the areas of catalysis, ion exchange, and adsorption/separations. Solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy has proven to be a powerful tool in the study of zeolites and relevant catalytic reactions because of its advantage in providing atomic-level insights into molecular structure and dynamic behavior. In this review, we provide a brief discussion on the recent progress in exploring framework structures, catalytically active sites and intermolecular interactions in zeolites and metal-containing ones by using various solid-state NMR methods. Advances in the mechanistic understanding of zeolite-catalysed reactions including methanol and ethanol conversions are presented as selected examples. Finally, we discuss the prospect of the solid-state NMR technique for its application in zeolites.

Abstract
Zeolite chemistry and catalysis are expected to play a decisive role in the next decade(s) to build a more decentralized renewable feedstock-dependent sustainable society owing to the increased scrutiny over carbon emissions. Therefore, the lack of fundamental and mechanistic understanding of these processes is a critical "technical bottleneck" that must be eliminated to maximize economic value and minimize waste. We have identified, considering this objective, that the chemistry related to the first-generation reaction intermediates (i.e., carbocations, radicals, carbenes, ketenes, and carbanions) in zeolite chemistry and catalysis is highly underdeveloped or undervalued compared to other catalysis streams (e.g., homogeneous catalysis). This limitation can often be attributed to the technological restrictions to detect such "short-lived and highly reactive" intermediates at the interface (gas-solid/solid-liquid); however, the recent rise of sophisticated spectroscopic/analytical techniques (including under in situ/operando conditions) and modern data analysis methods collectively compete to unravel the impact of these organic intermediates. This comprehensive review summarizes the state-of-the-art first-generation organic reaction intermediates in zeolite chemistry and catalysis and evaluates their existing challenges and future prospects, to contribute significantly to the "circular carbon economy" initiatives.

Abstract
Cascade processes are gaining momentum in heterogeneous catalysis. The combination of several catalytic solids within one reactor has shown great promise for the one-step valorization of C1-feedstocks. The combination of metal-based catalysts and zeolites in the gas phase hydrogenation of CO2 leads to a large degree of product selectivity control, defined mainly by zeolites. However, a great deal of mechanistic understanding remains unclear: metal-based catalysts usually lead to complex product compositions that may result in unexpected zeolite reactivity. Here we present an in-depth multivariate analysis of the chemistry involved in eight different zeolite topologies when combined with a highly active Fe-based catalyst in the hydrogenation of CO2 to olefins, aromatics, and paraffins. Solid-state NMR spectroscopy and computational analysis demonstrate that the hybrid nature of the active zeolite catalyst and its preferred CO2-derived reaction intermediates (CO/ester/ketone/hydrocarbons, i.e., inorganic-organic supramolecular reactive centers), along with 10 MR-zeolite topology, act as descriptors governing the ultimate product selectivity.

Abstract
Through-space heteronuclear correlation (D-HETCOR) experiments based on heteronuclear multiple-quantum correlation (D-HMQC) and refocused insensitive nuclei enhanced by polarization transfer (D-RINEPT) sequences have been proven to be useful approaches for the detection of the spatial proximity between half-integer quadrupolar nuclei in solids under magic-angle spinning (MAS) conditions. The corresponding pulse sequences employ coherence transfers mediated by heteronuclear dipolar interactions, which are reintroduced under MAS by radiofrequency irradiation of only one of the two correlated nuclei. We investigate herein using numerical simulations of spin dynamics and solid-state NMR experiments on magnesium aluminoborate glass how the choice of the channel to which the heteronuclear dipolar recoupling is applied affects the transfer efficiency of D-HMQC and D-RINEPT sequences between 11 B and 27 Al nuclei. Experimental results show that maximum transfer efficiency is achieved when the recoupling scheme is applied to the channel, for which the spin magnetization is parallel to the B0 axis in average.

Abstract
Understanding the nature of heterogeneous catalysts is critical for the rational design of highly active catalysts, which necessitates in-depth characterization of the structure and properties of catalysts as well as reaction mechanisms. Solid-state NMR correlation spectroscopy is becoming increasingly recognized as a powerful tool in the study of catalysts and catalytic reactions because of its capability to provide atomic-level insights into the structure, interaction and dynamics of molecules by establishing connectivity and proximity between the same or distinct nuclei. This tutorial review focuses on the fundamentals and state-of-the-art applications of solid-state NMR correlation techniques to structural characterization of catalytic materials including zeolites, metal oxides, organometallic complexes and MOFs as well as relevant studies regarding synthesis, synergistic catalysis, host-guest interactions and reaction mechanisms. Various correlation NMR methods that have been employed to address the challenging issues in heterogeneous catalysis are highlighted. This review concludes with outlooks on the promising applications and potential developments of solid-state NMR correlation spectroscopy in catalytic materials.

Abstract
As a commercial MTO catalyst, SAPO-34 zeolite exhibits excellent recyclability probably due to its intrinsic good hydrothermal stability. However, the structural dynamic changes of SAPO-34 catalyst induced by hydrocarbon pool (HP) species and the water formed during the MTO conversion as well as its long-term stability after continuous regenerations are rarely investigated and poorly understood. Herein, the dynamic changes of SAPO-34 framework during the MTO conversion were identified by 1D 27Al, 31P MAS NMR, and 2D 31P-27Al HETCOR NMR spectroscopy. The breakage of T-O-T bonds in SAPO-34 catalyst during long-term continuous regenerations in the MTO conversion could be efficiently suppressed by pre-coking. The combination of catalyst pre-coking and water co-feeding is established to be an efficient strategy to promote the catalytic efficiency and long-term stability of SAPO-34 catalysts in the commercial MTO processes, also sheds light on the development of other high stable zeolite catalyst in the commercial catalysis. Stability of zeolite catalysts is a highly desirable property for commercial methanol to olefins conversion but extremely challenging to achieve. Here, the authors combine the catalyst pre-coking and water co-feeding to develop an efficient strategy to enhance the long-term stability of SAPO-34 catalyst.

Abstract
The industrially important methanol-to-hydrocarbons (MTH) reaction is driven and sustained by autocatalysis in a dynamic and complex manner. Hitherto, the entire molecular routes and chemical nature of the autocatalytic network have not been well understood. Herein, with a multitechnique approach and multiscale analysis, we have obtained a full theoretical picture of the domino cascade of autocatalytic reaction network taking place on HZSM-5 zeolite. The autocatalytic reaction is demonstrated to be plausibly initiated by reacting dimethyl ether (DME) with the surface methoxy species (SMS) to generate the initial olefins, as evidenced by combining the kinetic analysis, in situ DRIFT spectroscopy, 2D 13C-13C MAS NMR, electronic states, and projected density of state (PDOS) analysis. This process is operando tracked and visualized at the picosecond time scale by advanced ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) simulations. The initial olefins ignite autocatalysis by building the first autocatalytic cycle-olefins-based cycle-followed by the speciation of methylcyclopentenyl (MCP) and aromatic cyclic active species. In doing so, the active sites accomplish the dynamic evolution from proton acid sites to supramolecular active centers that are experimentally identified with an ever-evolving and fluid feature. The olefins-guided and cyclic-species-guided catalytic cycles are interdependently linked to forge a previously unidentified hypercycle, being composed of one "selfish" autocatalytic cycle (i.e., olefins-based cycle with lighter olefins as autocatalysts for catalyzing the formation of olefins) and three cross-catalysis cycles (with olefinic, MCP, and aromatic species as autocatalysts for catalyzing each other's formation). The unraveled dynamic autocatalytic cycles/network would facilitate the catalyst design and process control for MTH technology.

Abstract
Methane dehydroaromatization (MDA) on Mo/ZSM-5 zeolite catalyst is promising for direct transformation of natural gas. Understanding the nature of active sites on Mo/ZSM-5 is a challenge for applications. Herein, using 1 H{95 Mo} double-resonance solid-state NMR spectroscopy, we identify proximate dual active sites on Mo/ZSM-5 catalyst by direct observation of internuclear spatial interaction between Brønsted acid site and Mo species in zeolite channels. The acidic proton-Mo spatial interaction is correlated with methane conversion and aromatics formation in the MDA process, an important factor in determining the catalyst activity and lifetime. The evolution of olefins and aromatics in Mo/ZSM-5 channels is monitored by detecting their host-guest interactions with both active Mo sites and Brønsted acid sites via 1 H{95 Mo} double-resonance and two-dimensional 1 H-1 H correlation NMR spectroscopy, revealing the intermediate role of olefins in hydrocarbon pool process during the MDA reaction.

Abstract
The chemical industry has exploited zeolite shape selectivity for more than 50 years, yet our fundamental understanding remains incomplete. Herein, the zeolite channel geometry-reactive intermediate relationships are studied in detail using anisotropic zeolite ZSM-5 crystals for the methanol-to-hydrocarbon (MTH) process, and advanced magic-angle spinning solid-state NMR (ssNMR) spectroscopy. The utilization of anisotropic ZSM-5 crystals enabled the preferential formation of reaction intermediates in single-orientation zeolite channels, as revealed by molecular dynamics simulations and in situ UV/Vis diffuse-reflectance spectroscopy. The ssNMR results show that the slightly more constrained sinusoidal zeolite channels favor the olefin cycle by promoting the homologation of alkanes, whereas the more extended straight zeolite channels facilitate the aromatic cycle with a higher degree of alkylation of aromatics. Dynamic nuclear polarization experiments further indicate the preferential formation of heavy aromatics at the zeolite surface dominated by the sinusoidal channels, providing further insight into catalyst deactivation.

Abstract
Non-oxidative dehydroaromatization is arguably the most promising process for the direct upgrading of cheap and abundant methane to liquid hydrocarbons. This reaction has not been commercialized yet because of the suboptimal activity and swift deactivation of benchmark Mo-zeolite catalysts. This progress report represents an elaboration on the recent developments in understanding of zeolite-based catalytic materials for high-temperature non-oxidative dehydroaromatization of methane. It is specifically focused on recent studies, relevant to the materials chemistry and elucidating i) the structure of active species in working catalysts; ii) the complex molecular pathways underlying the mechanism of selective conversion of methane to benzene; iii) structure, evolution and role of coke species; and iv) process intensification strategies to improve the deactivation resistance and overall performance of the catalysts. Finally, unsolved challenges in this field of research are outlined and an outlook is provided on promising directions toward improving the activity, stability, and selectivity of methane dehydroaromatization catalysts.

Abstract
Microporous materials have attracted a rapid growth of research interest in materials science and the multidisciplinary area because of their wide applications in catalysis, separation, ion exchange, gas storage, drug release, and sensing. A fundamental understanding of their diverse structures and properties is crucial for rational design of high-performance materials and technological applications in industry. Solid-state NMR (SSNMR), capable of providing atomic-level information on both structure and dynamics, is a powerful tool in the scientific exploration of solid materials. Here, advanced SSNMR instruments and methods for characterization of microporous materials are briefly described. The recent progress of the application of SSNMR for the investigation of microporous materials including zeolites, metal-organic frameworks, covalent organic frameworks, porous aromatic frameworks, and layered materials is discussed with representative work. The versatile SSNMR techniques provide detailed information on the local structure, dynamics, and chemical processes in the confined space of porous materials. The challenges and prospects in SSNMR study of microporous and related materials are discussed.

Abstract
Ga-modified zeolites represent the most effective catalyst for catalytic transformation of light alkanes to aromatics. GaO+ ions and GaOx clusters on Ga/ZSM-5 zeolites are probed by solid-state NMR. These two types of Ga species show strong Lewis acidity and are quantitatively correlated with the catalytic activity of Ga/ZSM-5 for methane C-H bond activation. The interaction between the surface Ga species and zeolite is characterized by using double-resonance solid-state NMR spectroscopy, which provides direct spectroscopic evidence for the location and distribution of active Ga species. These results provide new insight into the understanding of the nature and role of Ga species in Ga-modified zeolites for the conversion of light alkanes.

Abstract
After a prolonged effort over two decades, the reaction mechanism of the zeolite-catalyzed methanol-to-hydrocarbon (MTH) process is now well-understood: the so-called 'direct mechanism' (via direct coupling of two methanol molecules) is responsible for the formation of the initial carbon-carbon bonds, while the hydrocarbon pool (HCP)-based dual cycle mechanism is responsible for the formation of reaction products. While most of the reaction events occur at zeolite Brønsted acid sites, the addition of Lewis acid sites (i.e., via the introduction of alkaline earth cations like calcium) has been shown to inhibit the formation of deactivating coke species and hence increase the catalyst lifetime. With the aim to have an in-depth mechanistic understanding, herein, we employ magic angle spinning surface-enhanced dynamic nuclear polarization solid-state NMR spectroscopy to illustrate that the inclusion of Lewis acidity prevents the formation of carbene/ylide species on the zeolite, directly affecting the equilibrium between arene and olefin cycles of the HCP mechanism and hence regulating the ultimate product selectivity and catalyst lifetime.

Abstract
Zeolites are important heterogeneous catalysts widely used in the modern chemical and petrochemical industries. Metal-containing zeolites show distinct performance in the catalytic processes such as fluid catalytic cracking, activation and conversion of light alkanes, methanol-to-aromatics conversion, biomass transformation, and so on. The metal speciation, distribution, and interactions on zeolites have enormous impact on their property and catalytic performance. Significant efforts have been devoted to the synthesis of more active and selective zeolites by engineering the metal active sites. However, the nature of metal species and their role in the reactions are still poorly understood, which makes it difficult to establish the structure-activity relationship toward the rational design and application of zeolites. For example, synergic active sites are often present on the metal-containing zeolites, but their structure, property and quantification still remain to be resolved. Solid-state NMR is a powerful tool for the characterization of heterogeneous catalysts and catalytic reactions by providing information about both molecular structure and dynamics. The heterogeneity and low concentration of the metal sites on zeolites usually leads to a great challenge for their characterization. In this Account, we will describe our effort to study the metal active sites, host-guest interactions, and reaction intermediates by using solid-state NMR spectroscopy, with the aim to highlight recent advances in solid-state NMR techniques for probing the structure and property of metal-containing zeolites as well as the relevant reaction mechanisms. Using sensitivity-enhanced NMR methods such as 67Zn, 71Ga, and 119Sn, NMR enables the identification of metal speciation on zeolites. The synergic active sites constituted by metal species (as Lewis acid sites) and acidic protons (as Brønsted acid sites) on zeolites that amount to only a small fraction of the whole system can be directly probed and quantified with advanced 1H-67Zn or 1H-71Ga double-resonance solid-state NMR. We developed NMR methods to study the host-guest interactions in zeolites by observing the spatial interaction/proximity between aluminum sites (associated with Brønsted or Lewis acid sites) in zeolite host and carbon atoms in organic molecule guest formed during catalytic reaction, which leads to the formation of supramolecular reaction centers in the methanol-to-olefins reaction. The mechanisms underlying the catalytic reactions on metal-modified zeolite are revealed by the identification of key reaction intermediates with in situ 13C MAS NMR spectroscopy. Our discussion based on the representative examples shows how the metal species serving as active sites significantly affect the property and activity of zeolites and related reaction pathways. The structural information obtained by the state-of-the-art solid-state NMR techniques provides new insights into the structure-activity relationship of zeolites in heterogeneous catalysis, which should be beneficial for rational design of highly efficient zeolite catalysts.

Abstract
Zeolite-catalyzed dehydration of ethanol offers promising perspectives for the sustainable production of ethene. Complex parallel-consecutive pathways are proposed to be involved in the reaction network of ethanol dehydration on zeolites, where the initial step of ethanol dehydration is still unclear particularly for the favorable production of ethene at lower temperature. Here we report the observation of a triethyloxonium ion (TEO) in the dehydration of ethanol on zeolite H-ZSM-5 by using ex situ and in situ solid-state NMR spectroscopy. TEO is identified as a stable surface species on the working catalyst, which shows high reactivity during reaction. Ethylation of the zeolite by TEO occurs at lower temperature, leading to the formation of surface ethoxy species and then ethene. The TEO-ethoxide pathway is found to be energetically preferable for the dehydration of ethanol to ethene in the initial stage, which is also supported by theoretical calculations.

Abstract
Surface methoxy species bound to an extra-framework Al (SMS-EFAL) was unambiguously identified by advanced 13 C-{27 Al} double-resonance solid-state NMR technique in the methanol-to-olefins reaction on H-ZSM-5 zeolite. The high reactivity of the SMS-EFAL leads to the formation of surface ethoxy species and ethanol as the key intermediates for ethene generation in the early reaction stage. A direct route for the initial C-C bond formation in ethene was proposed and corroborated by density functional theory calculations.

Abstract
Solid-state NMR was utilized to explore the host-guest interaction between adsorbate and adsorbent at atomic level to understand the separation mechanism of styrene (St) and ethylbenzene (EB) in MIL-53(Al). 13C-27Al double-resonance NMR experiments revealed that the host-guest interaction between St and MIL-53 was much stronger than that of EB adsorption. In addition, 13C DIPSHIFT experiments suggested that the adsorbed St was less mobile than EB confined inside the MIL-53 pore. Furthermore, the host-guest interaction model between St, EB and MIL-53 was established on the basis of the spatial proximities information extracted from 2D 1H-1H homo-nuclear correlation NMR experiments. According to the experimental observation from solid-state NMR, it was found that the presence of π-π interaction between St and MIL-53 resulted in the stronger host-guest interaction and less mobility of St. This work provides direct experimental evidence for understanding the separation mechanism of St and EB using MIL-53 as an adsorbent.

Abstract
Probing and determining the intermediates formed during catalytic reactions in heterogeneous catalysis are strong challenges. Using 13C labelling and two dimensional 13C-13C through-bond NMR correlations, we directly reveal the structures of a range of carbenium ion species formed during the conversion of methanol to olefins on acidic H-ZSM-5 zeolite by mapping the carbon-carbon bond connectivities. Additionally, we use 13C-27Al and 29Si-13C through-space NMR experiments to probe the interactions between the confined carbon species (including carbenium ions) and the framework of the zeolite, which quantitatively provide an estimate for the carbon-aluminium and carbon-silicon distances, respectively.

Abstract
We demonstrated that the heteronuclear correlation experiments between two quadrupolar nuclei, 23Na and 27Al, with close Larmor frequencies can be achieved via D-HMQC and D-RINEPT approaches by using a diplexer connected to a conventional probe in magic-angle-spinning solid-state NMR. Low-power heteronuclear dipolar recoupling schemes can be applied on 23Na or 27Al to establish polarization transfers between the central transitions of 23Na and 27Al for a model compound, NaAlO2. Further, we showed a practical implementation of the two dimensional 23Na-27Al dipolar-based heteronuclear correlation experiment on a heterogeneous catalyst, Na2CO3/γ-Al2O3. This allows to determine spatial proximities between different 23Na and 27Al sites, thus the surface Na species adjacent to octahedral-coordination Al can be clearly discriminated.

Abstract
Surface and interfacial chemistry is of fundamental importance in functional nanomaterials applied in catalysis, energy storage and conversion, medicine, and other nanotechnologies. It has been a perpetual challenge for the scientific community to get an accurate and comprehensive picture of the structures, dynamics, and interactions at interfaces. Here, some recent examples in the major disciplines of nanomaterials are selected (e.g., nanoporous materials, battery materials, nanocrystals and quantum dots, supramolecular assemblies, drug-delivery systems, ionomers, and graphite oxides) and it is shown how interfacial chemistry can be addressed through the perspective of solid-state NMR characterization techniques.

Abstract
Methanol-to-olefin (MTO) catalysis is a very active field of research because there is a wide variety of sometimes conflicting mechanistic proposals. An example is the ongoing discussion on the initial C-C bond formation from methanol during the induction period of the MTO process. By employing a combination of solid-state NMR spectroscopy with UV/Vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy and mass spectrometry on an active H-SAPO-34 catalyst, we provide spectroscopic evidence for the formation of surface acetate and methyl acetate, as well as dimethoxymethane during the MTO process. As a consequence, new insights in the formation of the first C-C bond are provided, suggesting a direct mechanism may be operative, at least in the early stages of the MTO reaction.
