Abstract

New Co-N-C composites were synthesized by pyrolysis of the mixture of poly-5-aminoindole, cobalt (II) nitrate and different carbon nanomaterials. It was found that the obtained nanocomposites possessed high activity in various electrochemical processes (oxygen reduction, hydrogen and oxygen evolution) as well as in quinoline hydrogenation process, acting as multifunctional catalysts.
