In this paper we describe the utility of an acid-catalyzed isomerization reaction, specifically, ring-contraction of methylcyclohexane to an isomeric mixture of alkylcyclopentanes as a tool for characterizing the acidic properties of a wide range of platinum-loaded solid acids. Methylcyclohexane isomerization is particularly useful as a solid acidity probe reaction since it is a simple molecule containing one six-membered ring and a single methyl group substituent. As a solid acidity probe molecule methylcyclohexane has a number of advantages over cyclohexane. Ring-contraction of cyclohexane produces a single product, methlycyclopentane. Methylcyclohexane ring-contraction, in contrast, yields a richer and thus more informative product mixture including ethylcyclopentane, and five isomeric dimethylcyclopentanes. For the first time it will be shown that variations in the three primary descriptors of solid acids, acid site density, acid site strength, and shape selectivity, within a wide range of amorphous and crystalline solid acids can be simultaneously ranked using a single component probe reaction, namely, methylcyclohexane ring-contraction.
