The reaction mixture is cooled, filtered and evaporated to a residual oil which is redissolved in 50 ml of water and extracted with ethyl acetate (50 ml). The aqueous phase is adjusted to pH=2 and extracted with ethyl acetate and then adjusted to pH=5. The resulting solid is collected by filtration and converted to its hydrochloride salt which is recrystallized from acetone/methanol to yield 5-[4-(5-tetrazolyl)butyl]-imidazo[1,5-a]pyridine monohydrochloride, m.p. 159°-161°.
