Using nitrogen containing precursors could realize an in situ and homogeneous incorporation of nitrogen into the carbonaceous materials with a controlled process. Herein, N-doped hollow core-disordered mesoporous shell carbonaceous nanospheres （HCDMSs） were synthesized from glucosamine hydrochloride （GAH）, an applicable carbohydrate-based derivative. The obtained HCDMSs possessed controlled size （-450-50 nm） and shell thickness （-70-10 nm）, suitable nitrogen contents （-6.7-4.4 wt.%）, and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller （BET） surface areas up to 770 m^2.g^-1. These materials show excellent electrocatalytic activity as a metal-free catalyst for the oxygen reduction reaction （ORR） in both alkaline and acidic media. Specifically, the prepared HCDMS-1 exhibits a high diffusion-limited current, and superior durability and better immunity towards methanol crossover and CO poisoning for ORR in alkaline solution than a commercial 20 wt.% Pt/C catalyst.展开更多
