• Confirmed by later work by Corma <strong>and</strong> coworkers, using a supermolecule<br />
approach, on ethylene, benzene, toluene in a zeolite cage <strong>and</strong> naphtalene in<br />
pure silica structures “ avoiding the interference of electrostatic effects”.<br />
( F.Marquez, C.M. Zicovich-Wilson, A. Corma, E. Palomares, H. Garcia, J.Phys.Chem.B, 105, 9973 (2001)<br />
Are these results reflecting “pure confinement” effects or<br />
are (still) electrostatic, polarization, … effects at work due<br />
to the direct interaction between guest molecule <strong>and</strong><br />
confining atoms?<br />
