Novel branched amphiphilic lipids
Nouveaux lipides amphiphiles ramifiés
Résumé
The present invention relates to novel branched amphiphilic lipids. In particular, the present invention relates to novel branched amphiphilic lipids of general formula (II). The present invention also provides a method for synthesis of said compounds of formula (II) from unsaturated amphiphilic compounds of general formula (I). The invention also relates to the use of compounds of general formula (II) and lipoplexes obtained by formulating the compounds of general formula (II) for applications, including transfection, in which improved melting properties are sought.
