title: Location of functional groups with the aid of mass spectrometry. XVI.--Mass spectra of trimethylsilylated androstan-3,16,17 beta-triols.
abstract: The mass spectra of androstan-3,16,17beta-triols are very similar, so that a distinction between isomers is rather difficult. Main degradation reactions correspond to expulsion of substituents and loss of parts of the D-ring system.
