You may want to investigate xmodmap; I'm not sure there's a way to
specify any old unicode char (I think I've seen one) but if you create a
~/.xmodmaprc with something like (this is from mine, defining <AltGr+'> to
give the nicer ’ char):
keycode 0x30 = apostrophe at rightsinglequotemark dead_circumflex
rightsinglequotemark dead_circumflex
All the keys by default have an AltGr ('ISO Shift Level 3') mapping, Y's
is '←' (¥ with <Shift> as well). Pick one you don't fancy using any more,
and change its mapping. The full list of codes currently on a key can be
shown with xkeycaps (which is really showing its age now; any alternatives
anyone?) but I wouldn't recommend making it save a full xmodmaprc (unless
you then edit out all but the one you want).
