A method for the simultaneous determination of isosorbide dinitrate (ISDN) and its mononitrate metabolites (2- and 5-ISMN) in human plasma by capillary gas chromatography with electron-capture detection was developed. Two internal standards were used: isomannide dinitrate (IMDN) for the determination of ISDN and isomannide mononitrate (IMMN) for the determinations of 2- and 5-ISMN. After addition of the internal standards, the compounds were isolated from plasma by solid-liquid extraction. They were determined by gas chromatography using an electron-capture detector. The reproducibility and accuracy of the method were found suitable in the range of concentrations 2.5-83 ng/ml for ISDN, 2.6-208 ng/ml for 2-ISMN and 2.3-1010 ng/ml for 5-ISMN. The limit of quantitation (LOQ) was about 2.5 ng/ml for each compound. The method was applied to clinical samples.
