N-Doped porous carbon nanotubes: synthesis and application in catalysis.

Uniform N-doped carbon nanotubes were obtained for the first time via a morphology-preserving thermal transformation of organic polymer nanotubes without any additional templates. These carbon nanotubes acted as a superior metal-free carbon catalyst for C-H arylation of benzene, reductive hydrogen atom transfer and oxidation reactions.
