Abstract
HYDROXYL groups have been proposed as catalytic agents for reactions involving molecules sorbed in dehydrated zeolites1, and there has been extensive infrared study of them (see refs. 2 and 3 for summaries). Speculations have been made on the positions of the hydroxyl groups in faujasite, Y and X zeolites on the basis of the band frequencies, and on the frequency changes induced by molecular sorption and by deuterium and cation exchange. But most discussions have been rather general and have not considered the detailed properties of the crystal structure.
