	abstract = {<p>A simple one pot synthesis strategy using a non ionic triblock copolymer P123 as reducing as well as templating agent has been employed to prepare nano gold particles incorporated in the pores of mesoporous silica catalyst. The catalyst is characterized by XRD, nitrogen adsorption desorption isotherms at 77 K and TEM. The presence of small gold nanopartilces (similar to 2-4 nm) clearly demonstrated that this strategy can be effective in incorporating Au inside mesochannels. The catalyst reduced at 300 degrees C in H-2 was found to be active for oxidation reactions, such as CO oxidation, and benzyl alcohol. (C) 2012 Elsevier B. V. All rights reserved.</p>},
