Those aren't the same things. SQ's "saver First" inventory available to KrisFlyer members is a lot more generous than the inventory they make available to partners.
If you can find SQ inventory available in a partner's system, like by searching with NH or AC, then you can probably get UA to book it. But if SQ isn't publishing it to *A partners they're not publishing it to *A partners.
You can get SQ miles by accruing travel to SQ, or by converting Chase Ultimate Rewards or Amex Membership Rewards points.
