A facile approach is reported to prepare a series of transition-metal phthalocyanines supported on graphitized carbon black (TMPc/GCB, TM: Fe, Co, Ni and Cu) as oxygen reduction reaction electrocatalysts,viaπ–π interaction self-assembly.

Constructing Fe-based composites with a smart heterostructure, by using metallic Fe, Fe3C, Fe2O3 as building blocks, may open a door to rationally designing high-active and low-cost transition metal-based catalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction.

In this study, a novel type oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) electrocatalyst is explored using density functional theory (DFT); the catalyst consists of transition metal M and heteroatom N4 co-doped in vacancy fullerene (M–N4–C64, M = Fe, Co, and Ni).
