Oxygen-Rich Carbon Nitrides from an Eutectic Template Strategy Stabilize Ni, Fe Nanosites for Electrocatalytic Oxygen Evolution.

ABSTRACT: Functionalized porous carbons are central to various important applications such as energy storage and conversion. Here, a simple synthetic route to prepare oxygen-rich carbon nitrides (CNOs) decorated with stable Ni and Fe-nanosites is demonstrated. The CNOs are prepared via a salt templating method using ribose and adenine as precursors and CaCl₂ ·2H₂ O as a template. The formation of supramolecular eutectic complexes between CaCl₂ ·2H₂ O and ribose at relatively low temperatures facilitates the formation of a homogeneous starting mixture, promotes the condensation of ribose through the dehydrating effect of CaCl₂ ·2H₂ O to covalent frameworks, and finally generates homogeneous CNOs. As a specific of the recipe, the conden
