Abstract

Abstract Several lipoamino acids were synthesized, in which n-octadecanoic acid (stearic acid) was coupled with the α-amino group of an amino acid. The products were characterized and their identities confirmed by advanced analytical techniques like Fourier transform infrared 1 H nuclear magnentic resonance spectroscopy, and differential scanning, calorimetry. Their surface properties, such as critical micelle concentration ( ...
