cobalt porphyrin catalysts were designed and synthesized, and their catalytic activities for oxidation of p-nitrotoluene (PNT) to p-nitrobenzoic acid (PNBA) were investigated in the presence of molecular oxygen under mild conditions (55℃, 2.0 MPa). It was found that the 12 cobalt porphyrins had considerable catalytic activity for the reaction. The correlation between molecular frontier orbital energies of all the cobalt porphyrins and their catalytic activities was investigated by means of the PM3 semi-empirical molecular orbital method, and the result presented that the catalytic activity of 4-coordination or 5-coordination of cobalt porphyrins was related with EHOMO and ΔEL-H. ΔEL-H had greater impact on catalytic activity than EHOMO, and the lower the EHOMO and ΔEL-H, the higher the catalytic activity.

Key words: cobalt porphyrin catalyst, molecular frontier orbital energy, catalytic activity, correlation, PM3
