The synthesis of solid acids with strong zeolite-like acidity and textural properties like amorphous aluminosilicates (ASAs) is still a challenge. Here the authors synthesized “acidic amorphous aluminosilicates”, with Brønsted acidic sites like in zeolites and textural properties like ASAs for catalyzing various reactions.
