Abstract

A novel molecular sieve is disclosed which has a crystal structure which is an intergrowth of the pharmacosiderite and sitinakite structures. The molecular sieve has an empirical formula of: EQU A.sub.((4-4x)/n) (M.sub.x Ti.sub.1-z Ge.sub.y).sub.4 (Ge.sub.1-p Si.sub.p).sub.q O.sub.r where A is a cation such as sodium or potassium and M is a metal such as niobium or tantalum. A process for preparing the molecular sieve is also disclosed.
