Electrocatalytic reduction of molecular oxygen in alkaline solution using a novel ruthenium tetrakis(diaquaplatinum)octacarboxyphthalocyanine (RuOCPcPt) electrocatalyst supported on multi‐walled carbon nanotube electrode has been described. We show that the oxygen reduction activity follows a direct 4‐electron transfer process at high kinetic rate constant, 3.57×10 −2  cm s −1 .
