The role of dual-cation sites in zeolites has received a renaissance in chemistry and industry directed toward fixation and activation of various gases; such sites may be expected to be more efficient than a single-cation site. We aimed to clarify the real active centers in the copper-ion-exchanged MFI-type zeolite (CuMFI) for ethane (C2H6). A peculiar feature was found in the appearance of the characteristic IR bands at 2644 and 2582 cm–1when C2H6was adsorbed on Cu+formed in CuMFI. The existence of dual species composed of two Cu+ions bridging C2H6was clearly indicated by extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) data. Density functional theory calculations gave clear evidence that the two IR bands are distinctly due to C2H6adsorbed on the dual-Cu+site and not on a single site; this agrees with the EXAFS data. These data lead us to conclude that the dual-Cu+site in the CuMFI sample is indispensable for efficient activation of C2H6through the simultaneous interaction of C2H6with two Cu+ions.
