The products have been characterized via powder X-ray diffraction, N2 adsorption-desorption isotherms and diffuse reflectance UV-Vis spectroscopy. The divalent cobalt with a tetrahedral oxygen coordination exists mainly in the calcined samples. The catalytic properties have been tested for the oxidation of 4-t-butyltoluene with dioxygen in liquid phase at mild conditions. The products offered good catalytic activities in the oxidation reactions. Co-K-HMS catalyst with loading 4% Co and 2% K（mass fraction） affords a higher yield（22.4%） of 4-t-butylbenzaldehyde at a conversion of 28.3% under the reaction conditions. Adding a proper amount of potassium in Co-HMS results in an improvement catalytic activity and stability.展开更多
