Semiempirical (modified neglect of differential overlap) and ab initio (in STO-3G basis set) quantum chemical calculations were carried out on the electronic structure and geometry of alkoxy groups on the surface of zeolites with a high silica content. The net positive charge of the alkyl fragments was found to be low and almost constant when passing from methoxyl to isopropoxyl substituents. It was concluded that carbenium ion properties are a characteristic not of the ground states of surface esters, but of the transition states with elongated CO bonds, which are formed long before their full dissociation. Such activated complexes also possess some features of adsorbed carbenes or ylides. The mechanisms of some acidic catalytic reactions on zeolites are discussed within this framework.
