Molecular Co2+ ions were grafted onto doped graphene in a coordination environment, resulting in the formation of molecularly well-defined, highly active electrocatalytic sites at a heterogeneous interface for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). The S dopants of graphene are suggested to be one of...
