The present invention relates to a molecular sieve, particularly to an ultra-macroporous molecular sieve. The present invention also relates to a process for the preparation of the molecular sieve and to its application as an adsorbent, a catalyst, or the like. The molecular sieve has a unique X-ray diffraction pattern and a unique crystal particle morphology. The molecular sieve can be produced by using a compound represented by the following formula (I), ##STR00001## wherein the definition of each group and value is the same as that provided in the specification, as an organic template. The molecular sieve is capable of adsorbing more/larger molecules, thereby exhibiting excellent adsorptive/catalytic properties.

A new family of a microporous crystalline metallophosphate-based materials designated SAPO-80 has been synthesized. These metallophosphate-based materials are represented by the empirical formula
R.sup.p+.sub.rM.sub.w.sup.2+E.sub.xPSi.sub.yO.sub.z
where R is a quaternary ammonium cation such as ,-bis(dimethylethylammonium)-p-xylene, E is a framework element such as aluminum or gallium and the framework may optionally contain a divalent framework metal M such as magnesium or zinc. The microporous SAPO-80 compositions are characterized by having the AFX topology and have catalytic properties for carrying out various hydrocarbon conversion processes and separating properties for separating at least one component.
