Aluminophosphate molecular sieves using an organo-1-oxa-4-azoniumcyclohexane compound

A method for synthesizing an aluminophosphate based molecular sieve comprising:

• (a) preparing an aqueous mixture comprising water, a substituted hydrocarbon, and a 1-oxa-4-azacyclohexane derivative wherein said substituted hydrocarbons are selected from the group consisting of halogen substituted alkanes having between 2 and 8 carbon atoms, benzyl halides, 1-halomethane naphthalene, 2-halomethane naphthalene, halo-substituted non-olefinic alkyl groups having the formula CpH2p−1 where p is in the range from 4 to 10, α,ω-dihalogen substituted alkanes having between 3 and 6 carbon atoms, di-halogen substituted alkanes having between 3 and 8 carbon atoms, tri-halogen substituted alkanes having between 3 and 8 carbons, and combinations thereof;
• (b) reacting the aqueous mixture;
• (c) obtaining a solution comprising an organo-1-oxa-4-azoniumcyclohexane compound;
• (d) forming a reaction mixture comprising reactive sources of Al, Me, and P, and the solution wherein Me represents an element sleeted from the group consist of Mg, Zn, Be, Ga or an element from the first, second or third transition series of elements;
• and
• (e) heating the reaction mixture to form the molecular sieve.
