Are there alternatives to Benzoic acid,2-[3-[3-[2-(7-chloro-2-quinolinyl)ethenyl]phenyl]-3-hydroxypropyl]-, methylester, (S)- in synthesis (CAS: 142569-69-5)?

Alternative reagents in synthesis might include simpler benzoic acid derivatives, such as esters or amides, which can be synthesized using different methods. Isomers or analogs, like other 2-quinolinylethenyl derivatives, can be explored for similar properties. Common substitutes could involve using non-hazardous or less hazardous compounds, such as non-chlorinated or non-quinoline-containing substances.
