title: 17O nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of steroids.
abstract: The 17O NMR spectra of cholesterol and 31 other steroid alcohols, esters, ketones, and acids enriched by synthesis with 17O from H2(17)O have been observed under ordinary operating conditions, and correlations between 17O chemical shift and structure have been adduced. Spectra-structure correlations for these steroids are in conformity with those previously adduced with simpler compounds by others.
