1. General Considerations

Unless otherwise noted, all reagents and solvents were purchased from commercial sources and used as received.

All manipulations were conducted under argon (1atm). The reactions were monitored by thin-layer

chromatography (TLC) using silica gel gel (60 F254) plates. Compounds were visualized using a UV lamp (254

nm) and/or by potassium permanganate stain. Flash column chromatography was carried out on silica gel 60 (230-

400 mesh, 0.040-0.063 mm). Melting points (mp [°C]) were taken on samples in open capillary tubes and are

uncorrected. The infrared spectra of compounds were recorded on a Thermo Scientific Nicolet iS10. 1H, 13C and

19F NMR spectra were recorded on a spectrometer at 250 MHz (13C, 62.9 MHz) or 400 MHz (13C, 100 MHz; 19F:

376 MHz CPD). Chemical shifts are given in parts per million from tetramethylsilane (TMS) as internal standard.

The following abbreviations are used for the proton spectra multiplicities: s: singulet, d: doublet, t: triplet, q:

quartet, qt: quintuplet, m: multiplet, br.: broad, dd: double doublet, dt: double triplet. High-resolution accurate

mass measurements (HRAM) were recorded with a Maxis Bruker 4G instrument and were performed in positive

mode with an ESI source on a Q-TOF mass spectrometer with an accuracy tolerance of 2 ppm by the “Fédération

de Recherche” ICOA/CBM (FR2708) platform. Compounds 1a1 and 1n2 were synthesized according to the

literature procedures. Compounds 2e, 2i, 2m, 2n were not isolated as pure compounds but used as crude products

to afford the corresponding derivatives 3e, 3i, 3m, 3n.

Crystal structure determination of 6kCrystal Data for C19H15NO5S (M = 369.38 g/mol): triclinic, space group P-1(no. 2), a = 7.0651(2) Å, b = 7.1483(3) Å, c = 17.7906(5) Å, = 83.865(3)°, = 81.293(2)°, = 75.066(3)°,V = 855.96(5) Å3, Z = 2, T = 293 (2) K, μ(MoKα) =0.220 mm-1, Dcalc = 1.433 g/cm3, 16370 reflections measured (3.629° ≤ ≤ 29.645°), 4388 unique (Rint=0.049) which were used in all calculations. The final R1 was 0.0425 (for 3591 I > 2σ(I)) and wR2 was 0.1244 (all data). the final difference Fourier map showed minimum and maximum values of 0.334 and -0.417 e Å–3, respectively. The single crystal X-ray diffraction experiment was carried out using a RIGAKU XtaLabPro diffractometer equipped with a Mo microfocus sealed tube generator coupled to a double-bounce confocal Max-Flux® multilayer optic and a HPAD PILATUS3 R 200K detector, on a colourless crystalline parallelepipedic stick. was the data collection and reduction were performed by the CrysalisPro1 software. The structure was solved by Iterative dual-space direct methods (SHELXD program)2 in the centrosymmetric triclinic space group. Structure refinement was performed by full-matrix least-squares methods (SHELXL-2018/1 program)3 on 238 parameters, weighted refinement: w = 1/[σ2(Fo

2]/3 and hydrogen atoms located from difference Fourier synthesis and refined isotropically assuming a riding motion model and their isotropic U's were set to -1.2 (-1.5 for methyl) times the equivalent isotropic displacement parameter of the parent atom. The two methyl groups appeared disordered with two sites rotated by 60 degrees from one another. The corresponding site occupation factors were refined via a 'free variable' so that their sum is unity (e.g. 21 and -21) and the recommended HFIX123 riding model was employed. All non-hydrogen atoms were refined with anisotropic displacement parameters.CCDC 1823711(compound 6k) contains the supplementary crystallographic data for this paper.
