Abstract: The templating abilities of various organic amines in the formation of 2Dlayered aluminophosphates with Al3P4O163- stoichiometry were investigated by the combination of molecular dynamics simulation and the rapid Monte Carlo approaches. In terms of the host-guest non-bonding interaction energies(including VDWenergy, H-bond energy and Coulomb energy), some experimental phenomena can be well explained, and some suitable templates for a given inorganic layers can also be predicted. By choosing the theoretically predicted organic amine as template, a new 2Dlayered aluminophosphate, Al3P4O16·1.5H3NC6H10NH3, was synthesized successfully under solvothermal conditions. This work will further assist the rational synthesis of layered and microporous materials.
