1. General Information
All chemicals were purchased from commercial vendors and used without further purification, unless indicated otherwise. All reactions requiring anhydrous conditions were carried out under argon or nitrogen atmosphere using oven-dried glassware. AR-grade solvents were used for all reactions. Reaction progress was monitored by TLC on pre-coated silica plates (Merck 60 F254 nm, 0.25 µm) and spots were visualized by UV, iodine or other suitable stains. Flash column chromatography was carried out using silica gel (Qingdao Ocean). All NMR spectra (1H-NMR, 13C-NMR) were recorded on Bruker 300 MHz/400 MHz NMR spectrometers. Chemical shifts were reported in parts per million (ppm) referenced with respect to appropriate internal standards or residual solvent peaks (CDCl3 = 7.26 ppm, DMSO-d6 = 2.50 ppm). The following abbreviations were used in reporting spectra, br s (broad singlet), s (singlet), d (doublet), t (triplet), q (quartet), m (multiplet), dd (doublet of doublets). Mass spectra were obtained on Agilent LC-ESI-MS system. All analytical HPLC were carried out on Agilent system. Water with 0.1% TFA and acetonitrile with 0.1% TFA were used as eluents and the flow rate was 0.5 mL/min. Antibodies against EGFR (ab52894) and BTK (ab137503) were purchased from Cell Signaling Technology (CST). Click reagents were purchased from Click Chemistry Tools (https://clickchemistrytools.com/).
2. Cell culture and Western blot
Cell lines were obtained from the National Cancer Institute Developmental Therapeutics Program (NCI-60). Cells were cultured in Dulbeccoʼs modified Eagle medium (DMEM; Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA) or RPMI 1640 Medium (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA)
containing 10% heat-inactivated fetal bovine serum (FBS; Invitrogen), 100 units/mL penicillin, and 100 μg/mL streptomycin
(Thermo Scientific) and maintained in a humidified 37 °C incubator with 5% CO2. To generate protein lysates, cells were washed twice with cold phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), harvested with 1× trypsin or by use of a cell scraper, and collected by centrifugation. Cell pellets were then washed with PBS and lysed with RIPA (Thermo Scientific™,#89900) lysis and extraction
buffer (with Pierce™ Protease Inhibitor Tablets, Thermo Scientific™, #A32955). Protein concentration was determined by Pierce™
BCA Protein Assay Kit (Thermo Scientific™, #23252) and Synergy H1 Hybrid Multi-Mode Reader (BioTek). For Western blotting
experiments, samples were resolved by SDS−polyacrylamide gels and transferred to poly membranes. Membranes were then blocked
with 3% bovine serum albumin (BSA) in TBST (0.1% Tween in Tris-buffered saline) for 1 h at room temperature. After blocking, membranes were incubated with the corresponding primary antibody for another 1 hour. After incubation, membranes were washed with TBST (4×10 min) and then incubated with an appropriate secondary antibody. Finally, blots were washed again with TBST before being developed with SuperSignal West Dura Kit (Thermo Scientific), and finally imaged with Amersham Imager 600(GE Healthcare). Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8, DOJINDO, #CK04) was used for cell proliferation assay. Proteome labeling, in-gel fluorescence scanning and cellular imaging experiments were performed as previously reported.[1-4]

5. In Vitro Enzymatic Activity Assay and Cell Growth Inhibition Assay[8]
All the probes were evaluated with the EGFR, BTK kinase inhibition using Z'-LYTE™ fluorescence resonance energy transfer
(FRET) method, parent inhibitors were used as the reference compounds. The Z’-LYTE™ biochemical assay employs a FRET-based, coupled-enzyme format and is based on the differential sensitivity of phosphorylated and non-phosphorylated peptides to proteolytic cleavage. The peptide substrate is labeled with two fluorophores-one at each end-that make up a FRET pair. The compounds were diluted three-fold from 5.1x10-9 M to 1x10-4 M in DMSO. Plate was measured on EnVision Multilabel Reader (Perkin Elmer). Curve fitting and data presentations were performed using Graph Pad Prism version 4.0. Cytotoxicity assays were carried out using A431 and Raji cells by CCK8 assay. 3000 cells per well were seeded in a 96-well plate (100 μL medium/well) and incubated for 24 h in a humidified incubator for adherence. The probes and parent inhibitors in DMSO were added to cells at the final concentrations
(DMSO never exceeded 1‰) of 31.2, 15.6, 7.8, 3.9, 1.95, 0.97, 0.48, 0.24, 0.12, 0.06, 0.03 and 0.015 μM and further incubated for 48 h. CCK-8 reagent (10 μL) was added to each well and incubated for 2 h. Following that, the absorbance was measured at 450 nm
and 650 nm on a plate reader (Synergy HI, BioTek Instruments, Inc. Vermont, US). Cell viability rate was determined as VR = (A – A0)/(As – A0) × 100%, where A is the absorbance of the experimental group, As is the absorbance of the control group (DMSO was used as the control) and A0 is the absorbance of the blank group (no cells). IC50 values were calculated using GraphPad Prism.
