X-ray diffraction patterns were recorded on a Siemens D5000 diffractometer using CuKa radiation. Thermogravimetric and differential thermal analysis curves were recorded on a Setaram Setsys 12 thermal analysis station by heating in an argon atmosphere from 25 to 1200 -C at a rate of 5 min". Samples were used untreated. The Pt content was determined by the Service Central d Analyse, CNRS (Vernaison, France) and the microanalyses (C, H) were performed at Complutense University (Madrid, Spain). Na isotherms were determined on a Micromeritics ASAP 2000 analyzer. H MAS NMR, Si MAS NMR and C CP MAS NMR spectra were recorded at 400.13, 79.49 and 100.61 MHz, respectively, on a Broker ACP-400 spectrometer at room temperature. An overall 1000 free induction decays were accumulated. The excitation pulse and recycle time for H MAS NMR spectra were 5 ps and 3 s, respectively, those for Si MAS NMR spectra 6 ps and 60 s and those for C CP MAS NMR spectra 6 ps and 2 s. Chemical shifts were measured relative to a tetramethylsilane standard. Prior to measurement, if necessary, samples were dehydrated in a stove at 423 K for 24 h.

Angel Gonzalez Urena obtained a chemistry degree from the University of Granada (Spain) in 1968, followed by a PhD in Physical Chemistry from the Complutense University (Madrid, Spain) in 1972. 

During the period 1972-1974 he worked in the fields of molecular beam and reaction dynamics at the Universities of Madison (Wisconsin, USA) and Austin (Texas, USA), and in later years at universities in the UK. He became Associate Professor in Chemical Physics in 1974 and Full Professor in 1983, both at the Complutense University of Madrid. His research interests focus mainly on gas-phase, cluster and surface reaction dynamics, using molecular beam and laser techniques. He was one of the pioneers in measuring threshold energies in chemical reactivity when changing the translational and electronic energy of the reactants.

In 1964, he returned to Madrid and joined the Instituto Rocasolano of CSIC (Scientific Research Council of Spain) where, in 1968, he became the Head of the newly established Quantum Chemistry Laboratory. In 1984, he attained the highest position in CS/C, that of Research Professor, at the Instituto de Estructura de la Materia. Simultaneously he was a lecturer in Theoretical Chemistry at the Autonomous University, and later at the Complutense University in Madrid. Until his retirement he was the Head of the Department of Theoretical Physics and Chemistry and, after 1996, he became a Professor ad honorem at CSIC. In 1997 he was appointed Professor at Universidad Autonoma Metropolitana de Iztapalapa in Mexico (DF). 

J.L.G. Fierro is a senior research scientist and professor at the Institute of Catalysis and Petrochemistry of the National Council for Scientific Research (CSIC), Madrid, Spain. He is the editor of seven books and the author and coauthor of 600 professional papers, most of which concerned his research on metal oxides, including their synthesis, characterization, and application in catalytic reactions. He is a member of the Spanish Society of Chemistry and the Petroleum Division of the American Chemical Society. Professor Fierro received the B.S. (1973) in chemistry from the University of Oviedo, Spain, and a doctorate (1976) in chemistry from the Complutense University of Madrid.
