Abstract

We have synthesized four 6-thio pseudo glycolipid analogues and assessed how two of them self-assembled on a gold surface. These structures were designed as candidate tethers molecules to anchor bilayer lipid membranes on gold. 6-Deoxy-6-thiogalactose was chosen to anchor the macromolecule to the gold and define an aqueous zone at the gold surface. A long alkane chain (C-12 or C-18) linked to the anomeric position of the sugar ...
