The arrangement of the pore openings serves as a template for the positions of the branchings in the isomerization of n ‐alkanes—this is the explanation proposed by Martens et al. ( Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. Engl. 1995 , 34 , 2528) to rationalize their results in the isomerization of n ‐heptadecane on the zeolite ZSM‐22. This reaction would thereby be the first example of key–lock catalysis on the external surface of a zeolite.
