About four hours reaction time is all that is needed to synthesize the Chabazitic cobalt aluminophosphate (DAF‐5) with 4‐piperidinopiperidine as template. The template was designed with computer modeling techniques (resulting model shown on the right), after the desired properties of the microporous material had been identified. The work demonstrates the viability of such an approach for the synthesis of new microporous solids.
