The invention relates to a porous crystalline material (ITQ-24), the preparation method thereof and the use of same in the catalytic conversion of organic compounds. More specifically, the invention relates to a synthetic porous crystalline material which is characterised in that it is formed by tetrahedrally coordinated atoms which are interconnected by means of oxygens. Said material, which comprises a unit cell containing 56 tetrahedrally coordinated atoms, is known as ITQ-24. Moreover, in the calcined anhydrous state, the material has chemical formula nM.sub.1/pXO.sub.2: YO.sub.2, wherein: X is at least one trivalent element, Y is at least one tetravalent element, n is between 0 and 0.2 and M is at least one charge compensation cation in oxidation state p.
