Recent work on the crystallisation of inorganic crystals under compressed monomolecular surfactant films has shown that two dimensional templates can be used to promote the oriented nucleation of solids. When a suitable long alkyl chain surfactant is cast on the crystallisation media a monodispersied population of crystals forms exclusively at the monolayer/solution interface. Each crystal is aligned with a specific crystallographic axis perpendicular to the plane of the monolayer suggesting that nucleation is facilitated by recognition events between the nascent inorganic solid and the organic template.For example, monolayers of the long alkyl chain surfactant, stearic acid will promote the oriented nucleation of the calcium carbonate polymorph, calcite, on the (100) face, whereas compressed monolayers of n-eicosyl sulphate will induce calcite nucleation on the (001) face, (Figure 1 & 2). An extensive program of research has confirmed the general principle that molecular recognition events at the interface (including electrostatic interactions, geometric homology, stereochemical complementarity) can be used to promote the crystal engineering process.

Crystal structure of hexylammonium anthracene-9-carboxylate was investigated. The salt was arranged by a one-dimensional hydrogen bond network to form a columnar structure in the crystalline state. This columnar structure should be the model of fibrous assemblies in the organogels of anthracene-9-carboxylate alkylammonium salts having a long alkyl chain.

Abstract The present investigation involves the synthesis of a series of novel green ethylene oxide-linked diester-functionalized cationic gemini surfactants 2,2′-[(oxybis(ethane-1,2-diyl))bis(oxy)]bis(N-alkyl-N,N-dimethyl-2-oxoethanaminium) dichloride (Cm-DEG-Cm; m = 12, 14, 16). These compounds were characterized by 1H-NMR, MS-ESI (+), FT-IR spectroscopy and elemental analysis; their solution properties were evaluated by surface tension and rheology measurements. The dimeric surfactant, Cm-DEG-Cm, possesses improved physicochemical properties as compared to its monomeric counterpart. Much lower critical micelle concentration (cmc) makes the cationic gemini surfactants more useful for the biomedical, pharmaceutical, industrial and academic sectors. Longer the alkyl chain of surfactants lower are the cmc values, the order is C16-DEG-C16 < C14-DEG-C14 < C12-DEG-C12. For all the three synthesized gemini surfactants no cloud point was noticed in between the temperatures 0 °C to 100 °C at the concentrations 0.002 mM, 0.02 mM and 0.2 mM of the aqueous surfactant solutions which is a beneficial factor for the use of these amphiphiles in various areas of application.
