This invention relates to molecular sieve compositions and processes for using the molecular sieves. The molecular sieves have a three-dimensional microporous crystalline framework structure of tetrahedral oxide units of AlO.sub.2, SiO.sub.2, TiO.sub.2 and/or FeO.sub.2. These molecular sieves can be prepared by contacting a starting zeolite with a solution or slurry of a fluoro salt of titanium and/or iron under effective process conditions to extract aluminum from the zeolite framework and substitute titanium and/or iron. The molecular sieves can be used as catalysts in hydrocarbon conversion processes and other processes.

Molecular sieve compositions are prepared by extracting aluminum and substituting titanium and/or iron for extracted aluminum to give molecular sieve products containing framework titanium and/or iron atoms. The process of preparing the titanium and/or iron-containing molecular sieves involves contacting a starting zeolite with a solution or slurry of a fluoro salt of titanium and/or iron under effective process conditions to provide for aluminum extraction and substitution of titanium and/or iron.
