Abstract

N-doped mesoporous carbon material has been synthesized by a novel one-step assembling strategy using ionic liquid (IL) as the carbon source and structure-directing agent. The obtained mesoporous carbon material has bimodal mesopores (about 3.8 and 9.0nm) and partially graphitic structure with a BET surface area of 372m2/g and mesopore volume of 0.61cm3/g. The nitrogen in the IL precursor can be incorporated into the framework of mesoporous carbon with a content of 3.2wt%. The obtained carbon material shows excellent catalytic performance for nitrobenzene (NB) reduction reaction with an 88.6% yield to aniline (AN).
