摘要:
There is provided a hydrogelator that is capable of forming a hydrogel with an extremely small amount thereof over a liquid property range from acidic to alkaline, and a hydrogel having high environmental suitability, biocompatibility and biodegradability. A hydrogelator comprising a lipid peptide represented by Formula (1):
(where R 1 represents an aliphatic group having 9 to 21 carbon atoms; R 2 , R 3 and R 4 independently represent a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atom(s) which may have a branched chain having 1 or 2 carbon atom(s), a phenylmethyl group or a -(CH 2 ) n -X group, and at least one of R 2 , R 3 and R 4 represents a -(CH 2 ) n -X group; n represents the number of 1 to 4; X represents an amino group, a guanidino group, a -CONH 2 group or a 5-membered ring, a 6-membered ring or a fused heterocyclic ring composed of a 5-membered ring and a 6-membered ring which may have 1 to 3 nitrogen atom(s)) or a salt thereof, and a hydrogel comprising the hydrogelator.
摘要:
Disclosed is a hydrogel-forming agent, only a small amount of which enables to form a hydrogel over a wide pH range from acidic to alkaline conditions. Also disclosed is a hydrogel exhibiting high environmental suitability and biocompatibility, while having biodegradability. Specifically disclosed are a hydrogel-forming agent composed of a lipid-peptide represented by the formula (1) below or a salt thereof, and a hydrogel. (1) (In the formula, R1 represents an aliphatic group having 9-21 carbon atoms; R2, R3 and R4 independently represent a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group having 1-4 carbon atoms which may have a branched chain with 1 or 2 carbon atoms, a phenylmethyl group or a -(CH2)n-X group, provided that at least one of R2, R3 and R4 represents a -(CH2)n-X group; n represents a number of 1-4; X represents an amino group, a guanidino group, a -CONH2 group, or a five-membered or six-membered ring which may have 1-3 nitrogen atoms or a fused heterocyclic ring composed of a five-membered and a six-membered ring.)

There is provided a lipid peptide that is capable of forming a hydrogel with an extremely small amount thereof over a liquid property range from acidic to alkaline, and a hydrogel having high environmental suitability, biocompatibility and biodegradability. A lipid peptide represented by Formula (1):
(where R 1 represents an aliphatic group having 9 to 23 carbon atoms; R 2 , R 3 , R 4 and R 5 independently represent a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group having 1 to 7 carbon atom(s) which optionally has a branched chain having 1 to 3 carbon atom(s), a phenylmethyl group, a phenylethyl group or a -(CH 2 ) n -X group, and at least one of R 2 , R 3 , R 4 and R 5 represents a -(CH 2 ) n -X group; n represents the number of 1 to 4; X represents an amino group, a guanidino group, a -CONH 2 group or a 5-membered ring, a 6-membered ring or a fused heterocyclic ring composed of a 5-membered ring and a 6-membered ring which optionally have 1 to 3 nitrogen atom(s); and m represents 1 or 2), and a hydrogel comprising the lipid peptide.
