These dicationic OSDAs allow the synthesis of nanosized Beta zeolites with different Si/Al ratios (15¿30) in alkaline and fluoride media, resulting in nanocrystalline materials with different physicochemical properties. These nanosized Beta zeolites show better catalytic behavior towards the industrially-relevant alkylation of benzene with propylene to obtain cumene compared with other commercially available nanosized Beta zeolites.Reconocimiento (by)QUIMICA ORGANICAArtículo10.1039/c5sc03019fAbierto29861970PMC5950835
