The main objectives of the proposed project are to design and synthesize structurally different metallosurfactants (monomeric, dimeric, and double-chain) with selected transition metals (Fe, Co, Ni, Cu) in order to:

a)    obtain simple-to-produce, cost-effective, multifunctional metallosurfactants with improved self-assembly and solution properties by establishing an optimal structure-property relationship

b)    optimize simple, cost-effective, environmentally more friendly synthesis of metallic nanoparticles from synthesised metallosurfactants as metal precursors by establishing an optimal structure-property relationship and reactions conditions

c)   explore metallosurfactants as solid-state low-dimensional magnetic materials by establishing an optimal magneto-structural correlation
