چکیده
Exploring the potential catalytic applications of boron-doped carbon materials is a fascinating challenge. Here we describe that boron-doped onion-like carbon and carbon nanotubes as metal-free catalysts exhibit excellent catalytic activity and stability in nitroarene reduction under a stoichiometric amount of reductant.

Oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is an important reaction in energy conversion systems such as fuel cells and metal-air batteries. Carbon nanomaterials doped with heteroatoms are highly attractive materials for use as electrocatalysts by virtue of their excellent electrocatalytic activity, high conductivity, and large surface area. This study reports the synthesis of highly efficient electrocata...
متن کاملElectronic structures of boron-doped single-walled carbon nanotube
Since the discovery of the superconductivity in boron-doped diamond [1], the carrier doping, especially boron doping in carbon materials attracts much attentions. For the carbon nanotube, however, the effect of boron doping as well as the possibility of the superconductivity [2] have not been well understood yet. Thus, we systematically study the boron-doped single-walled zigzag carbon nanotube...
متن کاملCu and Boron Doped Carbon Nitride for Highly Selective Oxidation of Toluene to Benzaldehyde.
A novel Cu and boron doped graphitic carbon nitride catalyst (Cu-CNB) was synthesized using cheap precursors and systematically characterized. The selective oxidation of toluene proceeded very smoothly over the catalyst at 70 °C using tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) as the oxidant to exclusively afford benzaldehyde. The catalyst can be used for at least five cycles without decrease in activity ...
متن کاملMetal-free boron-doped graphene for selective electroreduction of carbon dioxide to formic acid/formate.
Herein we report the electrocatalytic activity of boron-doped graphene for the reduction of CO2. Electrolysis takes place at low overpotentials leading exclusively to formate as the product (vis-à-vis benchmark Bi catalyst). Computational studies reveal mechanistic details of CO2 adsorption and subsequent conversion to formic acid/formate.
