What is the highest temperature at which a relatively large array of stable chemical reactions can occur?
I'm just trying to figure out if there could possibly be any sort of "lava world" with a form of life that uses what on Earth would be molten rock or steel as the liquid base within which to carry out its biological functions. If not molten rock, then perhaps something more organic in composition - a kind of latex, perhaps, that would be solid in more Earth-like environments but that remains soluble enough of a liquid to permit chemistry to function.
I think you need to be creative, no one would have guessed that microbes could live in volcanic vents in the ocean or in hot springs. I would say that many organic compounds start to decompose around 150C, so that should be a good place to start and consider. Of course how can you manage to keep water in your system - under the ocean, water is never a problem, in lava... maybe you should consider silica lifeforms like star trek (old one) suggested.
consider the websites...:)
