Abstract
Discovery of green and novel synthetic routes for nanoparticles (NPs) has drawn a lot of interest due to the distinct nano size and unusual features as well as applications of such particles. Ionic liquid-based surfactants (ILBSs) and gemini ionic liquid-based surfactants (GILBSs) have become some of the best choices to be used as inducers or dispersing agents for the fabrication of nanoparticles. This work involves the synthesis, spectroscopic characterization, and surface property evaluation of three novel GILBSs (4a-c), which incorporate the imidazolium cation as the polar head with an ethylene spacer. The simple synthetic route includes, first, alkylating imidazole-N1 with the as-prepared fatty alkyl chloroacetates followed by quaternization of two equivalents of imidazole-N2 with ethylene dibromide. Investigations into the compounds' surface characteristics and thermodynamic parameters were carried out. The prepared GILBSs, 4a-c, were then used as inducers at various concentrations for the preparation of cuprous oxide nanoparticles. The size and shape of the produced NPs were examined by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis in each case to study the effect of concentration on the NP morphology and to determine the best concentration for the NPs fabrication. The XRD patterns of the produced Cu2O NPs contain distinguishable peaks, which refer to crystalline Cu2O. Also, TEM images show that the obtained Cu2O is present in form of well dispersed nanorod particles with sizes about 55 and 23 nm at concentrations of 60 and 200 ppm, respectively.

Abstract
Deposition of asphaltene aggregates can easily depress the oil production, because it may clog the wellbores, annulus, pipelines, and surface facilities. Moreover, asphaltene molecules have a negative effect on the catalytic reactions in the refinery process. Therefore, in this work, three different ionic liquids (IL-H, IL-CH3, and IL-NO2) were synthesized, and characterized using FT-IR and NMR spectroscopy to evaluate their efficiency as asphaltene dispersants. The thermal gravimetric analysis of the prepared ILs showed that IL-H, IL-NO2, and IL-CH3 were thermally stable up to 280 °C. The ILs showed good dispersion activity of the petroleum asphaltenes, where the asphaltene onset precipitation (AOP) was changed from 7.5 to 10.5, 11, and 13.5 ml added n-heptane after the use of IL-H, IL-NO2, and IL-CH3, respectively. Moreover, the colloidal instability index of crude oil was changed from 0.92 (unstable asphaltene) to 0.69 (stable asphaltene). It is noted during the experiments that the presence of an alkyl chain attached to the ionic liquid moiety increases the efficiency of the dispersant. This may be owing to the formation of π-π* with asphaltene molecules due to the presence of electron donating group. Quantum chemical parameters were calculated for the prepared ILs, and the theoretical data confirmed the experimental results.

Abstract
The impetus for the expanding interest in ionic liquids (ILs) is their favorable properties and important applications. Ionic liquid-based surfactants (ILBSs) carry long-chain hydrophobic tails. Two or more molecules of ILBSs can be joined by covalent bonds leading, e.g., to gemini compounds (GILBSs). This review article focuses on aspects of the chemistry and applications of ILBSs and GILBSs, especially in the last ten years. Data on their adsorption at the interface and micelle formation are relevant for the applications of these surfactants. Therefore, we collected data for 152 ILBSs and 11 biamphiphilic compounds. The head ions of ILBSs are usually heterocyclic (imidazolium, pyridinium, pyrrolidinium, etc.). Most of these head-ions are also present in the reported 53 GILBSs. Where possible, we correlate the adsorption/micellar properties of the surfactants with their molecular structures, in particular, the number of carbon atoms present in the hydrocarbon "tail". The use of ILBSs as templates for the fabrication of mesoporous nanoparticles enables better control of particle porosity and size, hence increasing their usefulness. ILs and ILBSs form thermodynamically stable water/oil and oil/water microemulsions. These were employed as templates for (radical) polymerization reactions, where the monomer is the "oil" component. The formed polymer nanoparticles can be further stabilized against aggregation by using a functionalized ILBS that is co-polymerized with the monomers. In addition to updating the literature on the subject, we hope that this review highlights the versatility and hence the potential applications of these classes of surfactants in several fields, including synthesis, catalysis, polymers, decontamination, and drug delivery.

Abstract
A ubiquitous example of DNA and proteins inspires the scientific community to design synthetic systems that can construct various self-assembled complex nano-objects for high-end physiological functions. To gain insight into judiciously designed artificial amphiphilic structures that through self-assembling form various morphological architectures within a single system, herein, we have studied self-aggregation of amide-functionalized surface-active ionic liquids (AFSAILs) with different head groups in the DMSO/water mixed system. The AFSAIL forms stimuli-responsive reversible micelle and vesicle configurations that coexist with three-dimensional (3D) network structures, the organogel in the DMSO/water mixed system. The self-assembly driving forces, self-organization patterns, network morphologies, and mechanical properties of these network structures have been investigated. With the proven biodegradability and biocompatibility, one can envisage these AFSAILs as the molecules with a new dimension of versatility.

Abstract
A new class of surface active ionic liquids (SAIL) have been reported to be a greener alternative to the conventional surfactants in enhanced oil recovery (EOR). These SAILs work efficiently under harsh salinity conditions encountered in the reservoir thereby recovering more additional oil during the tertiary oil recovery process. Adsorption mechanism of SAILs on different rock surface is however, not yet reported in the literature. This article highlights adsorption mechanism of three cationic SAILs having different headgroups, viz., imidazolium, pyridinium, pyrrolidinium, on different rock surfaces (crushed natural carbonate rock and crushed sandstone rock). All the SAILs studied here however had the same tail length and same anion (Br−) attached to it. XRD and XPS characterization techniques reveal that the crushed natural carbonate rock contains a substantial amount of silica, thus rendering it a slight negative charge. Static adsorption tests show that the retention efficiency on the natural carbonate type of rock for all the SAILs was lower than the conventional cationic surfactant, CTAB. The adsorption data obtained thereby was examined using four different adsorption isotherm models (Langmuir, Freundlich, Redlich-Peterson, and Sips). Results suggest that Sips adsorption isotherm model can satisfactorily estimate the adsorption of all the surface active agents on the natural carbonate rock. Factors like mineralogical composition of rock surface, presence of divalents, temperature, and structure of surfactants strongly affect the amount of surfactant adsorbed on reservoir rock. In order to evaluate the simultaneous effect all these factors as well as their interdependence on the retention capability of the three SAILs, a design of experiments approach has been employed further in this study. Statistical analysis of the data obtained after performing the full factorial experiments reveal that at high salinity, imidazoluim based SAIL show minimal adsorption on crushed natural carbonate rock at higher temperature. In general, at a given ionic strength, with increasing temperature as the amount of divalent in the aqueous solution increases, the amount of SAIL adsorbed on both the rock types decreases. Electrostatic attraction is the basic mechanism in governing adsorption of SAILs on the two types of rock surfaces. Results presented in this work can be used for EOR schemes.

Abstract
The motivation for designing low-molecular-weight gelators with self-healing characteristics originates from elegant examples in biology such as vines of the genus Aristolochia whose internal secondary growth exhibits rapid self-healing in their stems. In the present work, we had explored the stimuli-responsive dual gelation characteristics for the ester-functionalized surfactant (4-(2-(hexadecyloxy)-2-oxoethyl)-4-methylmorpholin-4-ium bromide, C16EMorphBr) in aqueous medium at 7.20% (w/v) critical gel concentration and pH 7.4. The hydrogel provides an excellent platform to study dynamic phase behavior within a supramolecular network as it exhibits transformation from a fibrillar opaque hydrogel to a transparent hydrogel upon heating. Molecular interactions, arrangement within the supramolecular framework, and mechanical properties of the hydrogels were characterized using Fourier transform infrared, small-angle neutron scattering, rheological analysis, and tensile strength and cyclic loading-unloading tests. The fibrillar opaque gel has been characterized for its morphology using scanning electron microscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and atomic force microscopy. The self-sustained, self-healable porous fibrillar opaque xerogel was further explored for selectively absorbing anionic dyes and for its load-bearing characteristics. We conclude a perspective on designing a new-age gelator that can open entirely new avenues in environmental protection and wearable "smart" devices.

Abstract
Surfactant-mediated coacervates are termed as the new age microreactors for their ability to spontaneously sequester the molecules with varied polarities and functionalities. Efforts to emulate this applicability of coacervates through synthetic control of surfactant structures are finding success; however, there is little understanding of how to translate these changes into tailor-made properties. Herein, we designed 3-methyl-1-(octyloxycarbonylmethyl)imidazolium bromide (C8EMeImBr), an ester-functionalized ionic liquid-based surfactant, which shows better surface active properties than the nonfunctionalized and conventional cationic surfactant and forms complex coacervates over the broad range of concentration with sodium salicylate (NaSal). Mono- and divalent cations as well as ionic strength, viscosity, and time-dependent stability of the coacervates had also been addressed in order to study whether these coacervates could work as microreactors to encapsulate various molecules. The anionic charged complex coacervates with sponge morphology and honey comb-like interior show good efficiency to sequester cationic dyes from water because of electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions and good encapsulation efficiency for curcumin owing to their high surface area. Results suggest that ionic liquid-based coacervates studied here could be exploited as a novel low-cost, effective, and environmentally benign alternative to sequester dyes from the contaminated water and their recovery.

Abstract
An ionic liquid-based surfactant with ester functionality self-aggregates in an aqueous medium and forms ionogels at 8.80% (w/v) concentration at physiological pH. The ionogel exhibited a remarkable change in its appearance with temperature from fibrillar opaque to transparent because of the dynamic changes within its supramolecular structure. This gel-to-gel phase transition occurs below the melting point of the solid ionic liquid. The ionogels were investigated using turbidity, differential scanning calorimetry, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), field emission SEM (FE-SEM), inverted microscopy, transmission electron microscopy imaging, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and rheological measurements. The fibrillar opaque ionogel and transparent ionogel were studied for their ability to absorb dyes (methyl orange and crystal violet) and to encapsulate drugs (diclofenac sodium and imatinib mesylate).

Abstract
HYPOTHESIS The phase behavior of amphiphiles is known to depend on their solvent environment. The organic character of ionic liquids suggested the possibility to tune surfactant aggregation, even in the absence of water, by selection of appropriate ionic liquid chemistry. To that end the behavior of the surfactant sodium dodecylsulfate in a chemically similar imidazolium ionic liquid, 1-ethyl-3-methyl imidazolium ethylsulfate, was explored. EXPERIMENTS The solubility of sodium dodecylsulfate in 1-ethyl-3-methyl imidazolium ethylsulfate was determined, establishing the Krafft temperature. Tensiometry was performed to obtain interfacial properties such as the surface excess and area per molecule. Pulsed-field gradient spin-echo NMR was used to determine the diffusion coefficients of all the major species, including micelles, as a function of surfactant concentration. Importantly, all three methods provided consistent values for the critical micelle concentration. FINDINGS Analysis of tensiometry data suggests, and is confirmed by NMR results, that the ionic liquid ions are incorporated along with surfactants into micelles, revealing a complex micellization behavior. In light of these findings past studies with ternary mixtures of surfactants, ionic liquids, and water may merit additional scrutiny. Given the large number of ionic liquids, this work suggests opportunities to further control micelle formation and properties.

Abstract
A series of surface-active ionic liquids based on the 1-dodecyl-3-methylimidazolium cation and different anions was synthesized and applied for micellar catalysis of nucleophilic substitutions.
A series of surface-active ionic liquids based on the 1-dodecyl-3-methylimidazolium cation and different anions such as halides and alkylsulfates was synthesized. The aggregation behavior of these ionic liquids in water was characterized by surface tension, conductivity measurements and UV-Vis spectroscopy in order to determine the critical micelle concentration (CMC) and to provide aggregation parameters. The determination of surface activity and aggregation properties of amphiphilic ionic liquids was accompanied by SAXS studies on selected surface-active ionic liquids. The application of these surface-active ionic liquids with different anions was tested in nucleophilic substitution reactions for the degradation of organophosphorus compounds. Kinetic studies via UV-Vis spectrophotometry showed a strong acceleration of the reaction in the micellar system compared to pure water. In addition, an influence of the anion was observed, resulting in a correlation between the anion binding to the micelle and the reaction rate constants, indicating that the careful choice of the surface-active ionic liquid can considerably affect the outcome of reactions.
