Abstract:A bicyclic pyrone-type species on oxygen-doped carbon catalysts was identified as the active site for oxygen reduction reaction in an acidic solution. It has much higher activity than that of typical nitrogen-doped carbon catalysts (0.219 e.s-1.site-1 vs. 0.021~0.088 e.s-1.site-1 at 0.6 VRHE). The ortho-carbon atom in the carbonyl ring of the pyrone-type species was revealed as the react site by theoretical calculations.
