The invention relates to preparation of a supported hollow sphere carbon material and application in electrocatalytic performance. A 
metal macrocyclic complex is supported by taking a hollow sphere carbon material as a carrier. The preparation method of the catalyst comprises the following steps of: (1) adding a certain amount of a template agent into 
ethanol and an alkaline solution, adding 
dopamine hydrochloride and derivatives thereof, stirring, centrifuging, 
drying, carrying out high-
temperature treatment, carrying out alkaline washing to remove the template, washing with water to neutrality, and 
drying to obtain a hollow sphere carbon carrier, and (2) dissolving or dispersing the 
transition metal macrocyclic complex in an 
organic solvent, mixing with the hollow sphere carbon carrier prepared in the step (1), carrying out ultrasonic treatment, rotary 
evaporation, high-temperature 
roasting and 
acid washing to remove impurities, and washing to neutrality to obtain the supported non-
noble metal electrocatalyst. The preparation method has the advantages that the preparation method is simple and easy to control, large-scale application is easy, and the prepared non-
noble metal catalyst has very 
high oxygen reduction catalytic activity, selectivity and 
methanol poisoning resistance while the cost is reduced, thereby realizing a wide application prospect.
