CO poisoning as a probe for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) active sites was examined on both iron–nitrogen coordinated catalysts supported on carbon (FeNC) and nitrogen-doped carbon nanostructures (CNx). Rotating disk electrode (RDE) experiments show a partial decrease in the ORR activity of FeNC catalysts after CO exposure and no decrease for CNx catalysts. Diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform (DRIFT) spectroscopy experiments after exposure to CO show a peak at 2033 cm–1 (associated with linearly bound CO) on the FeNC catalysts and no peaks associated with adsorbed CO on the CNx catalyst surface. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations incorporating dispersion interactions of the adsorption energy of O2 and CO were performed on a total of 16 proposed active sites for the FeNC and CNx catalysts. On CNx, all the sites show weak CO adsorption and only O2 molecules are expected to adsorb, which matches the experimental observation of no poisoning. Several FeNC sites show CO binding energies s...
