A systematic study on the effect of a catalyst on the aerobic oxidation of cyclohexane was carried out using cobalt isooctanoate, metalloporphyrin p-ClTPPCo and [p-ClTPPFe]2O as catalysts. The results showed that the metalloporphyrin-catalyzed system performed better than the traditional cobalt salt (Co isooctanoate) in terms of both the reaction conversion and the selectivity of cyclohexanol and cyclohexanone (KA oil). More importantly, we discovered that bisironporphyrin complex, which was traditionally considered to be either non-active or not-so-active for hydrocarbon oxidation, excelled at 155°C, achieving high selectivity for KA oil (80%) and good reaction conversion (13.8%). This result is in sharp contrast to earlier results by others. Meanwhile, the production of adipic acid was also increased and good selectivity of adipic acid among the by-products was also obtained. Our study suggested that [p-ClTPPFe]2O catalyzed aerobic oxidation could be used to produce adipic acid in addition to KA oil. Some mechanistic rationales were proposed to explain the superior performance of the [p-ClTPPFe]2O catalyst based on its unique structural and chemical properties.
