An oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) mechanism in conducting polymer PEDOT is studied using the density functional theory. It is demonstrated that pure PEDOT chains possess the catalytic activity, where no platinum catalyst or external dopants are needed to sustain the electrocatalysis. This remarkable property of PEDOT is related to the formation of polaronic states, which leads to the decrease of the HOMO LUMO gap and thus to the enhancement of the reactivity of the system. It is shown that ORR on PEDOT chains can proceed via two pathways, whether via a four-electron process when the oxygen reacts with protons and is reduced directly into water in four steps (Reaction path I) or via the two-electron process leading to formation of the hydrogen peroxide as an intermediate specimen (Reaction path II). Path I is demonstrated to be energetically preferable. This conclusion also holds for ORR on two pi-pi stacked chains and ORR for the case when PEDOT is reduced during the reaction. It is also found that ORR on PEDOT effectively proceeds in the presence of H3O+ but does not occur in the absence of acidic environment.
