22. Hemimorphite was prepared by allowing sodium silicate to react with zinc nitrate (molar ratio Zn:Si=2) in aqueous solution, which resulted in the formation of an amorphous white precipitate, and subsequently heating this suspension to 90°C for 24 hours as described in detail in reference [33d] (example 1). The observed XRD lines were identical to those in card number 5-0555 of the JCPDS-ICDD data base (1995).

32. 3. This reaction is computed to occur with no activation barrier. The angle between zinc, the methoxide oxygen, and the proton-donating atom should be around 12±3° and the distance between zinc and nitrogen around 5.4±0.2 Å.

50. The nuclear charges of the hydrogen link atoms have been adjusted according to the formal charge contribution of the zinc (0.5) and silicon atoms (1.0) which they replace. The link atoms have been set in the direction of the replaced atoms, with the O-H distance optimized at the DFT level. The positions of the link atoms have been kept fixed in all subsequent calculations.
51. This is a very simplified view. More likely the protons will be able to distribute themselves over the available surface oxygens. The reaction will only occur when the proper silanol group is carrying a proton. In the course of this work we did not investigate the activation barriers for the proton transfers.
52. A Gibbs energy of activation (ΔG*) will still exist because the activation entropy should be negative.
53. -1 higher than that of methanol. A possible explanation would be that product desorption occurs through an addition-elimination mechanism.
