2 Materials and Methods Unless otherwise stated, reactions were performed in oven-dried glassware fitted with rubber septa under a nitrogen atmosphere and were stirred with Teflon-coated magnetic stirring bars. Liquid reagents and solvents were transferred via syringe using standard Schlenk techniques. Tetrahydrofuran (THF), diethyl ether (Et 2 O) was distilled over sodium/benzophenone ketyl. Dichloromethane (CH 2 Cl 2 ) and toluene were distilled over calcium hydride. All other solvents such as DMF, chloroform, dioxane, DMSO, DCE, acetonitrile, CCl 4, methanol and reagents such as (3aR)-(+)-sclareolide, ortho-vanillin, paravanillin, 2,5-dimethoxybenzaldehyde, 1,2,4-trimethoxy benzene, bromine, sodium dithionite, ceric(iv) ammonium nitrate, dimethyl sulphate, potassium carbonate, n-butyllithium, trifluroacetic acid, trifluromethanesulphonic acid, BF 3.OEt 2, different types of metal triflate etc. were used as received, unless otherwise noted. Thin layer chromatography was performed using Merck silicagel 60 F-254 precoated plates (0.25 mm) and visualized by UV irradiation, anisaldehyde, yellow dip stain and other stains. Silicagel from Merck (particle size and mesh) were used for flash chromatography. Melting points were recorded on a digital melting point apparatus from Jyoti Scientific (AN ISO 9001:2000) and are uncorrected. 1 H and 13 C NMR spectra were recorded on Bruker 400, 500 MHz spectrometers with 13 C operating frequencies of 100, 125 MHz, respectively. Chemical shifts (δ) are reported in ppm relative to the residual solvent signal (δ = 7.26 for 1 H NMR and δ = 77.0 for 13 C NMR). Data for 1 H NMR spectra are reported as follows: chemical shift (multiplicity, coupling constants and number of hydrogens). Abbreviations are as follows: s (singlet), d (doublet), t (triplet), q (quartet), m (multiplet), br (broad). IR spectra were recorded on a FT-IR system (Spectrum BX) from PerkinElmer spectrometer and are reported in frequency of absorption (cm -1 ). Only selected IR absorbencies are reported. High resolution mass spectra were obtained from the Central Instrumentation Facility (CIF) at the Indian Institute of Science Education and Research (IISER) Bhopal. S2

The round-bottom flask was stirred at 80 ºC for indicated time (2 h). Upon completion of the reactions, (TLC showed complete consumption S25

26 of starting material) the reaction mixture was quenched by saturated NaHCO 3 solution and diluted with 5 ml of dichloromethane. The whole reaction mixture was taken in a separatory funnel and extracted with 5 ml of water. The organic filtrate was dried over Na 2 SO 4 and concentrated in a rotary evaporator under vacuum. The crude products were purified by flash chromatography (10:1 hexanes/etoac) to afford Friedel-crafts alkylation product. Table1: Selected optimization of Nazarov type reaction of 6a. S. N.
