Capillary gas chromatography with electron capture detection is described for the quantification of chloral hydrate (CH) and is metabolites trichloroethanol (TCE) and trichloroacetic acid (TCA) in 0.1-1 mL of plasma samples. The method, with 2,2′-dichloroethanol (DCE) as internal standard, involved extraction of chloral hydrate and trichloroethanol with diethyl ether and methylation of trichloroacetic acid with 3-methyl-1-tolyltriazene (MTT), followed by diethyl ether extraction. The method has a detection limit of 5 ng/mL for CH and TCE and 10 ng/mL for TCA and also allows the determination of TCE-glucuronide in 0.1-1 mL of plasma samples. It exhibits good linearity and precision. The method was applied to samples of plasma from a neonate after a single dose of 40 mg/kg of chloral hydrate and from an adult after a single dose of 6.25 mg/kg.
