Abstract
Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) have been chemically derivatised via the reduction of anthraquinone-1-diazonium chloride with hypophosphorous acid to attach 1-anthraquinonyl groups to the MWCNTs, most likely at edge plane like defects. The covalently attached quinone moiety attached to the nanotubes (‘molecular wire’) acts as an effective mediator for the electrocatalytic reduction of oxygen
