Glyceryl 2-nitrate (G-2-N) is the major metabolite of glyceryl trinitrate. Strips of rat aorta contracted with potassium chloride or with norepinephrine were relaxed by G-2-N. After oral administration to the anaesthetized rat or to the conscious dog G-2-N exhibited antianginal and hypotensive activity. The hypotensive and also cardiovascular activity of G-2-N lasted much longer than that of glyceryl trinitrate.
