Abstract A newer class of Gemini amphiphiles was prepared using d ‐glucitol as a template. C 18 alkyl chains are incorporated on the template to confer hydrophobicity while monomethoxy polyethylene glycol (mPEG) moiety of varied size imparts hydrophilicity. An acetonide group mounted on glucitol moi...
