Single atom catalyst is of great importance for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR).However,facile preparation of single atom catalyst without using well-designed precursors or labor-intensive acid leaching remains an urgent challenge.Herein,a simple pyrolysis of Fe3+-loaded mesoporous phenolic resin (mPF)-melamine precursor is used to prepare the single atom iron-anchored N-doped mesoporous graphitic carbon nanospheres (Fe/N-MGN).Investigation of the synthesis reveals the appropriate Fe-assisted catalysis effect and mPF template effect,which not only spurs the highly graphitic porous framework of Fe/N-MGN with plentiful pyridinic N/graphitic N,but also assures the dispersed single atom Fe anchoring without elaborated procedures.As a result,the as-synthesized Fe/N-MGN demonstrates high catalytic activity,good durability and excellent methanol tolerance for ORR.This work promises a facile method to regulate the graphitic carbon growth and single atom Fe loading for the highly efficient electrocatalysis.
