Abstract: Microporous crystalline metallophosphate composition having an essential framework structure whose chemical composition in the as synthesised form expressed in terms of mole rations of oxides is: mR(M.sub.x Al.sub.y P.sub.z)O.sub.2 where M is silicon, x+y+z=1, m may have a value from 0.02 to 0.3, R is at least one templating agent, x, y and z represent the mole fractions of silicon, aluminium and phosphorous presentin the product, and where x may have a value from 0 to 0.5, y may have a value from 0.25 to 0.5 and z may have a value from 0.25 to 0.5, and where one reactive form of fluoride may be present in an effective amount to form the product, and having a characteristic X-ray powder diffraction pattern containing at least the d-spacings as set forth in Table 1.
