An attempt to correlate the non-isothermal desorption behavior of heterocyclic compounds on a NaY zeolite

The strength of interaction of various heterocycles with a NaY zeolite was investigated by using temperature-programmed desorption (TPD). The global and local softness of the molecules was computed and an attempt was made to find correlation between the softness of the molecules and the strength of their interaction with the NaY.
