Over the last decade, carbon‐based metal‐free electrocatalysts (C‐MFECs) have become important in electrocatalysis. This field is started thanks to the initial discovery that nitrogen atom doped carbon can function as a metal‐free electrode in alkaline fuel cells. A wide variety of metal‐free carbon nanomaterials, including 0D carbon dots, 1D carbon nanotubes, 2D graphene, and 3D porous carbons, has demonstrated high electrocatalytic performance across a variety of applications. These include clean energy generation and storage, green chemistry, and environmental remediation. The wide applicability of C‐MFECs is facilitated by effective synthetic approaches, e.g., heteroatom doping, and physical/chemical modification. These methods enable the creation of catalysts with electrocatalytic properties useful for sustainable energy transformation and storage (e.g., fuel cells, Zn‐air batteries, Li‐O2 batteries, dye‐sensitized solar cells), green chemical production (e.g., H2O2, NH3, and urea), and environmental remediation (e.g., wastewater treatment, and CO2 conversion). Furthermore, significant advances in the theoretical study of C‐MFECs via advanced computational modeling and machine learning techniques have been achieved, revealing the charge transfer mechanism for rational design and development of highly efficient catalysts. This review offers a timely overview of recent progress in the development of C‐MFECs, addressing material syntheses, theoretical advances, potential applications, challenges and future directions.

Today’s oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) depends on the precious metal Pt‐based catalysts, limiting the large commercialization of promising energy conversion technologies such as proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) and metal‐air batteries. Therefore, the rational design of low‐cost and highly efficient electrocatalysts for ORR is strongly desired. Herein, we report a porous carbon doped with nitrogen, fluorine, and phosphorus (N, F, P tri‐doped carbon) prepared via only a heating process using low‐cost glycine, ammonium fluoride, and phytic acid as precursors. X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis revealed the existence of pyridinic‐N and the co‐existence of graphitic‐N and oxidized graphitic‐P, which can be active sites, with semi‐ionic C‐F bonds highly boosting ORR activity. Remarkably, the resultant N, F, P tri‐doped carbon exhibited outstanding activity for the ORR with an onset potential comparable to that of commercial 20 wt.% Pt/C catalyst, the half‐wave potential superior to that of the Pt/C catalyst, and the electron transfer number close to 4.
