The 27Al multiple quantum magic angle spinning (MQMAS) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra of mordenite zeolites were simulated using the point charge model (PCM). The spectra simulated by the PCM considering nearest neighbor atoms only (PCM-n) or including atoms up to the 3rd layer (PCM-m) were not different from those generated by the Hartree-Fock (HF) molecular orbital calculation method. In contrast to the HF and density functional theory methods, the PCM method is simple and convenient to use and does not require sophisticated and expensive computer programs along with specialists to run them. Thus, our results indicate that the spectral simulation of the 27Al MQMAS NMR spectra obtained with the PCM-n is useful, despite its simplicity, especially for porous samples like zeolites with large unit cells and a high volume density of pores. However, it should be pointed out that this conclusion might apply only for the atomic sites with small quadrupole coupling constants.

Metakaolinite produced by thermal transformation from kaolinite was studied by 27Al multiple quantum magic angel spinning (MQMAS) NMR technique in addition to 1-dimensional 27Al and 29Si MAS NMR. Our results confirm that 4-, 5-, 6- coordinated aluminum sites co-exit with some distribution of isotropic chemical shifts. This is consistent with amorphous character of metakaolinite observed with X-ray diffraction. In addition, characterization with MQMAS is briefly discussed in comparison with other NMR techniques to identify different aluminum sites especially when peaks are severely overlapped in 1-dimensional 27Al MAS NMR spectra.

$^{27}AI$ triple quantum magic angle spinning (3QMAS) NMR spectra of several mordenite (MOR) sample were simulated with the point charge model method and compared with experimental 3QMAS spectra. Signal positions from different tetrahedral (T) sites in 3QMAS spectra are mainly governed by local structures of T sites such as T-O-T angles and T-O bond lengths. When preparation methods, cations in addition to Si/Al rations vary, the local structures of T sites in MOR change enough to alter signal patterns in 3QMAS of MOR. This inhibits to study the of Al distribution variation over 4 different T sites in mordenite during process such as dealumination by 3QMAS spectra.
