title: A readily-prepared, convergent, oxygen reduction electrocatalyst.
abstract: Monomeric cobalt(II) tetraphenylporphyrin immobilized in high concentrations within vapour-phase polymerized polypyrrole deposited on an ITO electrode catalyzes the 4-electron reduction of dioxygen to water, a reaction requiring concerted action by two separate catalytic groups.
