YieldReaction ConditionsOperation in experiment
66% With triethylamine; In ethanol;Reflux; General procedure: 4-Amino butanoic acid (GABA) was dissolved in ethyl alcohol followed by addition of II (i-xi) (0.01 M) and triethylamine (0.01 mol). The reaction mixture was refluxed for 6-7 h. The reaction mixture was poured on crushed ice. The resulting solid was separated, dried, and recrystallized from ethanol.

94% With sodium methylate; In methanol;Reflux; A mixture of 4-hydroxy-7-phenoxy-isoquinoline-3-carboxylic acid methyl ester (100 mg, 0.34 mmol) and 4-aminobutyric acid (525 mg, 5.1 mmol) in 0.5 N NaOMe in MeOH solution (6.8 mL, 3.4 mmol) was heated to reflux overnight. Reaction mixture was diluted with water (100 mL) and acidified by 1 N HC1 solution to pH = 3-4. Precipitate was collected and rinsed with water. It was dried in vacuo to provide the title compound (117 mg, 0.32mmol) in 94% yield. LC-MS ESI-: 365.05 (M-l)

YieldReaction ConditionsOperation in experiment
76% With triethylamine; In tetrahydrofuran; water; for 4h; To a solution of BCN-OSu (1 .00 g, 3.43 mmol) in a mixture of THF and water (80 mL/80 mL) were added γ-aminobutyric acid (0.60 g, 5.12 mmol) and Et3N (1.43 mL, 1.04 g, 10.2 mmol). The mixture was stirred for 4 h followed by addition of DCM (200 mL) and a saturated aqueous solution of NhUCI (80 mL). After separation, the aqueous layer was extracted with DCM (2x200 mL). The combined organic layers were dried (Na2S04) and concentrated. The residue was purified with column chromatography (MeOH in DCM 0→ 10%). The product was obtained as a colourless thick oil (730 mg, 2.61 mmol, 76%).

YieldReaction ConditionsOperation in experiment
With acetic acid; for 3h; General procedure: Phthalic anhydride or its derivatives (2.0 mmol) and 4-aminobutyric acid (2.0 mmol) were added to glacial acetic acid (10 mL) and heated to 100 C for 3 h. The reaction was quenched with water (10 mL) and was adjusted to pH 6-8 with NaOH (0.1 mol/L). The mixture was extracted with dichloromethane (10 mL × 3), and the organic layer was washed with aq. NaHCO3, and water and then evaporated to afford intermediate.
