The local electronic structure of the cobalt centre-ion of Co(III) protoporphyrin IX chloride dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) liquid solution is studied by resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) spectroscopy at the cobalt L-edge. The resulting cobalt 2p partial-fluorescence-yield (PFY) X-ray absorption (XA) spectrum, integrated from RIXS spectra, is simulated for various possible spin-states and coordination of the cobalt centre by using the newly developed density functional theory/restricted open shell single excitation configuration interaction (DFT/ROCIS) method. Comparison between experiment and calculation shows that the cobalt ion (3d(6) electronic configuration) adopts a low-spin state with all six 3d electrons paired, and the cobalt centre is either 5-coordinated by its natural ligands (one chloride ion and four nitrogen atoms), or 6-coordinated, when binding to an oxygen atom of a DMSO solvent molecule. Analysis of the measured RIXS spectra reveals weak 3d-3d electron correlation, and in addition a value of the local HOMO-LUMO gap at the Co sites is obtained.

A biomimetic assembly of per-O-methylated-cyclodextrin dimer with cobalt proto-porphyrin (Co-PPIX@Py2CD) was achieved via covalent linkage between Co of Co-PPIX and pyridine N of Py2CD (primarily synthesized by the acyl chlorination reaction of two β-CDs monomers with 3,5-bis (bromomethyl) pyridine). Ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) and circular dichroism (CD) absorption spectroscopy, and NMR hydrogen spectroscopy (H-NMR) were adopted to carefully characterize the structure of Py2CD and its functional assembly with Co-PPIX. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) was employed to affirm the binding of the as-obtained Co-PPIX@Py2CD, whose electrochemical kinetics were extensively studied to validate the feasibility in the catalytic reduction of hydrogen peroxide (HO).
