Heteroatom doped carbon materials with mesopores are active catalysts to bring about oxygen reduction reaction in alkaline media. Here, we aim to see the sights of mesoporous-nitrogen containing carbon (MNC) prepared at three different temperatures towards selective hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) production during oxygen reduction reaction in neutral media. A high H 2 O 2 selectivity of 85 % at 0.7 V vs. RHE is apparent with a large H 2 O 2 production rate of 9600 μmol g catalyst À 1 h À 1 and faradaic efficiency of 88.7 % for MNC-600 in 0.1 M KHCO 3 solution. The effect of electrolyte towards selectivity is also premeditated. In the end, to visualize the local H 2 O 2 production sequential chronoamperometry in SG-TC mode was performed using Pt-microelectrode at applied substrate potentials.
