We designed and successfully synthesized the compounds 5 and 8 as potential pan-RAR (retinoic acid receptor) agonists. These two compounds were designed based on an existing pan-RAR agonist (BMS493). We synthesized compound 5, in which the carboxylic acid group in BMS 493 was replaced by boronic ester; and compound 8, in which the double bond of BMS 493 was changed to an oxadiazole (as bioisosteres of double bond) ring. The two target molecules 5 and 8 were synthesized from the commercially avai ...[more]
