The unique structure of the ITQ‐13 zeolite has been determined, which consists of an intercrossed system of medium‐pore channels, made up of 9‐ and 10‐ring pore apertures that run parallel to the crystallographic axes (see picture). Moreover, it has been possible to introduce acid sites into this structure, which opens the possibility for its use in acid catalysis.
