This review discusses about synthesis of monolayer nanoparticles of organic–inorganic hybrid metal hydroxide salts (MHSs) and use them as building blocks to fabricate higher order structures. Epoxide-mediated basification induces high supersaturation condition, which leads formation of MHS nanoparticles. Incorporation of carboxylic acids enables tuning stability of nanoparticles, as a result, monolayer MHS nanoparticles are obtained by incorporating monocarboxylates. In the case of MHS nanoparticles including acrylate, nanoparticle-interconnected porous materials are obtained through thermal-, photo-, and self-polymerization of acrylate moiety. Electrochemical functions of MHS nanoparticles are found to be controlled by organic carboxylate moiety. Various metals, alloys, carbides, pnictides, chalcogenides, and halides can be prepared through thermal conversion of MHS nanoparticles.
