The present invention relates to a method to prepare porphyrin nanoparticles and its application as oxidation catalyst. Mixing solvent techniques was used to prepare porphyrin nanoparticles. The sizes of the resulted porphyin nanoparticles are in the range of 1-1000 nm. The resulted porphyrin nanoparticles were characterized by DLS, AFM and UV-Vis. The nanoparticles are stable in air from weeks to months and has been successfully transferred to Al
