This paper uses {sup 13}C solid-state NMR to study the chemistry of a variety of absorbates related to the methanol-to-gasoline process. This study has resulted in a better understanding of the chemical reaction occurring inside the zeolite HZSM-5 used in this process. It is shown that ethylene is the first olefin formed and ethyl methyl ether is also formed during this hydrocarbon synthesis on zeolite HZSM-5.
