The invention discloses an alcohol oxidation aldehyde ketone production applied novel catalyst and a preparation method thereof. According to the alcohol oxidation aldehyde ketone production applied novel catalyst, hydrotalcite-like compounds serve as the carrier, metal complexes which is one or two of V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Au, Pd, and Pt serve as a catalytic oxidative activity center, and the content of carried metal elements is 0.03-5.00% of the total mass of the alcohol oxidation aldehyde ketone production applied novel catalyst. The invention also discloses the preparation method of the alcohol oxidation aldehyde ketone production applied novel catalyst. According to the alcohol oxidation aldehyde ketone production applied novel catalyst and the preparation method thereof, alcohol and oxidants serve as the raw materials, under the action of the prepared alcohol oxidation aldehyde ketone production applied novel catalyst, high ketone conversion rate and high aldehyde ketone absorbing rate can be achieved; meanwhile, no acid or alkali or organic additives exist in a reaction system, so that the alcohol oxidation aldehyde ketone production applied novel catalyst has the advantages of being high in yield rate, low in cost, free from environmental pollution, easy to separate, high in repeatability and the like. Meanwhile, the preparation method of the alcohol oxidation aldehyde ketone production applied novel catalyst has the advantages of being rich in raw material resource, free from environmental pollution and the like.
