Three types of cross-linked porous organic polymers (either oxygen-, nitrogen-, or sulfur-doped) were carbonized under a chlorine atmosphere to obtain chars in the form of microporous heteroatom-doped carbons. The studied organic polymers constitute thermosetting resins obtained via sol-gel polycondensation of resorcinol and five-membered heterocyclic aldehydes (either furan, pyrrole, or thiophene). Carbonization under highly oxidative chlorine (concentrated and diluted Cl2 atmosphere) was compared with pyrolysis under an inert helium atmosphere. All pyrolyzed samples were additionally annealed under NH3. The influence of pyrolysis and additional annealing conditions on the carbon materials’ porosity and chemical composition was elucidated.

Nitrogen-doped and heteroatom multi-doped carbon materials are considered excellent metal-free catalysts, superior catalyst supports for transition metal particles and single metal atoms (single-atom catalysts), as well as efficient sorbents for gas- and liquid-phase substances. Acid-catalyzed sol–gel polycondensation of hydroxybenzenes with heterocyclic aldehydes yields cross-linked thermosetting resins in the form of porous organic polymers (i.e., organic gels). Depending on the utilized hydroxybenzene (e.g., phenol, resorcinol, phloroglucinol, etc.) and heterocyclic aldehyde variety of heteroatom-doped organic polymers can be produced. Upon pyrolysis, highly porous and heteroatom-doped carbons are obtained. Herein, polycondensation of phloroglucinol with imidazole-2-carboxaldehyde (and other, similar heterocyclic aldehydes with two heteroatoms in the aromatic ring) is utilized to obtain porous, N-doped organic and carbon gels with N-content of up to 16.5 and 12 wt.%, respectively. Utilization of a heterocyclic aldehyde with two different heteroatoms yields dually-doped carbon materials. Upon pyrolysis, the porous polymers yield ultramicroporous N-doped and N,S co-doped carbons with specific surface areas of up to 800 m2g−1. The influence of the initial composition of reactants and the pyrolysis temperature on the structure and chemical composition of the final doped organic and carbon materials is studied in detail.
