Herein, with the aid of ionic liquid, we demonstrate for the first time that highly stable Au/SiO2 hetero-nanocomposites can serve as a robust and recyclable peroxidase mimic for realizing high-temperature catalytic reactions. Our findings pave the way to use nanomaterials for the design and development of efficient bio mimetic catalysts and, more significantly, to apply ionic liquid as a positive modulator in catalytic reactions.
