Abstract
We describe a highly efficient synthesis of microporous aluminophosphate AlPO4-5 and its heteroatom-substituted variants, using N-methyldicyclohexylamine as a structure-directing agent that, in addition, does not result in the formation of any other microporous phase over the widest range of composition, temperature and pH conditions ever reported.
