Regularly-structured solid matrices are potent materials for regulating molecular permeation and diffusion. Zeolite materials bearing ordered micropores are very advantageous to control the diffusion of molecules. When some disilylbenzene compounds were grafted on mordenite and ZSM-5 zeolites, the penetrations of small molecules such as α-methylstyrene (AMS) and molecular nitrogen were prevented by the direct formation of the crosslinking with two grafting sites on the exterior surfaces of those zeolites. The dimerization reaction of α-methylstyrene effectively promoted by mordenite was not catalyzed by these grafted mordenite samples. No adsorptions of molecular nitrogen were observed in the grafted mordenite and ZSM-5 samples. When these grafted samples were calcined, both the catalytic activity for the dimerization and the permeation of molecular nitrogen were recovered. The reopening of the micropores of zeolites was also achieved by the treatment with HCl acidic solutions. Thus, the diffusion and the permeation of various small molecules can be perfectly and reversely controlled by the sealing and the reopening of the micropores of zeolites by the disilylbenzene compounds.
