3 Experimental section Reactant agents. All reagents were used as purchased commercially without any further purification. Ludox (SiO 2, 40%, Sigma-Aldrich), Tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS, Tianjin Fuchen Chemical Reagent Factory), GeO 2 (>99.99%, Yunnan Lincang Xinyuan Germanium Industrial Co., Ltd), Al 2O 3 (Beijing Chemical Works), HF (40%, Beijing Chemical Works), Al(OH) 3 (Beijing Chemical Works), tetraethylammonium hydroxide (TEAOH) (35%, Alfa), tetrapropylammonium hydroxide (TPAOH) (40% Alfa), tetrabutylammonium hydroxide (TBAOH) (55%, Alfa). Dodecane was purchased from Beijing Chemical Works. Benzaldehyde (>98.5%), 2-hydroxyacetophenone (99%) were purchased from Aladdin Industrial Co. Heptanal (97%), 2-phenylpropanal (95%), diphenylacetaldehyde (97%) and trimethylorthoformate (98%) were purchased from Energy Chemical Co. Synthesis of zeolite TEA-ITQ-44. As a typical procedure: GeO 2 and Al 2O 3 were added to the solution of SDAOH, stirring for 2 h. Then Ludox (SiO 2, 40%) was added into the mixture solution followed by continuous stirring of 1 h. Finally, HF was added under the continuous stirring. The gel mixture was kept on stirring to evaporate the excess water until getting to the desired water ratio. The desired reaction gel was transferred into a Teflon-lined stainless steel autoclave and heated at 170 C for 3 days under static conditions. The product was washed adequately with deionized water and dried at 80 C overnight. The optimized gel molar composition for the synthesis of TEA-ITQ-44 was x SiO 2: (1-x) GeO 2: y Al 2O 3: 0.25 TEAOH: 0.25 HF: 1 H 2O, where x = and y = Synthesis of zeolites TPA-ITQ-44 and TPA-NUD-1. When using TPAOH as the structure-directing agent, the synthesis procedure and crystallization conditions were the same as the one mentioned above. And the optimal gel molar composition for the synthesis of TPA-ITQ-44 was 0.2 SiO 2: 0.8 GeO 2: x Al 2O 3: 0.25 TPAOH: 0.25 HF: 1 H 2O (x = ). In synthesizing TPA-NUD-1, the optimized gel molar composition was x SiO 2: (1-x) GeO 2: y Al 2O 3: 0.25 TPAOH: 0.25 HF: 1 H 2O, where x = and y = Synthesis of zeolites TBA-ITQ-33 and TBA-NUD-1. TBAOH could also direct the synthesis of the ITQ-33 and NUD-1 zeolite with the typical synthesis procedure mentioned above. And the optimal molar composition in synthesizing TBA-ITQ-33 was x SiO 2: (1-x) GeO 2: y Al 2O 3: 0.25 TBAOH: 0.25 HF: 3 H 2O, where x ranges from 0.5 to 0.8 and y ranges from 0 to The optimized gel molar composition in synthesizing TBA-NUD-1 was x SiO 2: (1-x) GeO 2: y Al 2O 3: 0.25 TBAOH: 0.25 HF: 1 H 2O, where x ranges from 0.5 to 0.8 and y ranges from 0 to Synthesis of conventional ZSM-5. As a typical run, 0.4 g of NaAlO 2, 3.3 ml of TPAOH, and 3.5 ml of TEOS were mixed, followed by addition of 10 ml of water. After stirring at room temperature for 6 h and aging at 100 C for 2 h. The mixture was then transferred into an autoclave for crystallization at 180 C for 3 days. The products were collected by filtration, dried in air and then calcined at 550 C for 6 h to remove the templates. [S1] Characterizations Powder X-ray diffraction analysis of the samples was carried out on a Rigaku D-Max 2550 diffractometer using Cu Kα radiation (λ = Å, 50 KV). Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images were recorded on a JEM-2200FS electron microscope. Nitrogen adsorption-desorption measurements were carried out on a Micromeritics ASAP 2420 analyzer at 77 K. The testing samples were degassed at S3

4 150 C under vacuum for 10h. Thermogravimetric (TG) analysis was performed with a TA company TGA Q500 in air atmosphere with a heating rate of 10 C minˉ1 from room temperature to 800 C. The elements analysis of C, H, N was performed on a ELEMENTER VARIO MICRO. Chemical compositions were determined with inductively coupled plasma (ICP) analysis performed on a icap 7000 SERIES ICP spectrometer. The temperature-programmed desorption of ammonia (NH 3-TPD) experiments were carried out with a Micromeritics AutoChem II 2920 automated chemisorption analysis unit with a thermal conductivity detector (TCD) under helium flow. 27 Al magic-angle spinning (MAS) NMR spectrum and 29 Si MAS NMR spectra were recorded on a Varian Infinity plus 400 spectrometer at resonance frequencies of MHz and 79.5 MHz with spinning rates of 6 KHz and 4 KHz, respectively. 13 C CP MAS NMR and 19 F MAS NMR spectra were performed on a Bruker AVANCE III 400 WB spectrometer at resonance frequencies of MHz and MHz with a spinning rate of 8 KHz and 20 KHz, respectively. Chemical shifts of 27 Al, 29 Si, 13 C and 19 F are referenced to 1.0 M Al(NO 3) 3, 2,2-dimethyl-2-ilapentane-5-sulfonate sodium salt (DSS), tetramethylsilane (TMS) and CFCl 3, respectively. Catalytic tests Condensation of benzaldehyde with 2-hydroxyacetophenone was carried out in a three-necked round flask equipped with a condenser and a magnetic stirrer. The mixture containing 7 mmol of benzaldehyde, 3.5 mmol of 2-hydroxyacetophenone and 50 mg of the catalyst was heated to 150 C and maintained at that temperature for 15 h. The products were analyzed by Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS, Thermo Fisher Trace ISQ, equipped with TG-5MS column, 60m 320µm 25µm). The reaction conditions of carbonyl compound (heptanal, 2-phenylpropanal, or diphenylacetaldehyde) with trimethylorthoformate (TOF) were as follows: 30 mg of catalyst, 3 mmol of carbonyl compound, 15 mmol of TOF, at 120 C for 6 h. The products were analyzed by Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS, Thermo Fisher Trace ISQ, equipped with TG-5MS column, 60m 320µm 25µm). S4
