Patent ID: 8545798

Claim:
A method for preparing molecular sieve SSZ-81, comprising contacting under crystallization conditions (1) at least one source of silicon; (2) at least one source of aluminum; (3) at least one source of an element selected from Groups 1 and 2 of the Periodic Table; (4) hydroxide ions; and (5) a structure directing agent selected from 1,5-bis(1-azonia-bicyclo[2.2.2]octane)pentane dications, 1,5-bis(1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane)pentane dications, and mixtures thereof; wherein the molecular sieve has, after calcination, an X-ray diffraction pattern substantially as shown in the following Table: d-spacing 2 Theta (Angstroms) Relative Intensity (%) 7.45 ± 0.20 11.86 S 7.45 peak-10.50, ±0.20 W, broad band 14.38 6.15 W 18.50-22.26 peak, ±0.20 W, broad band 22.26 ± 0.20 3.99 W 22.79 ± 0.20 3.90 S 23.53 ± 0.20 3.78 W-M 24.36 ± 0.20 3.65 W-M 25.37 ± 0.20 3.51 W 26.37 ± 0.20 3.38 W 27.53 ± 0.20 3.24 W 28.67 ± 0.20 3.11 W.
