R. China ABSTRACT: Developing novel and efficient catalysts is always an important theme for heterogeneous catalysis from fundamental and applied research points of view. In the past, carbon materials . s were used as supports for numerous heterogeneous catalysts e l c i because of their fascinating properties including high surface areas, . t ) r a C d tunable porosity, and functionality. Recently, the newly emerging T U e ( h N-doped carbon-supported metal catalysts have arguably experi- s i 6 l enced great progress and brought the most attention over the last 1 b : u 0 p 4 decades in view of the fact that nitrogen doping can tailor the : e 2 r 0 a properties of carbon for various applications of interest. Compared h t s a 8 y with pristine carbon-supported metal catalysts, these catalysts l 1 e 0 t normally show superior catalytic performance in many heteroge- a 2 , m 6 i neous catalytic reactions becau
