X-ray diffraction powder data and powder diffraction photographs for 27 steroids are presented. Visual comparison of the powder patterns for known and unknown steroids was found to be sufficient for identification.

ARGE numbers of well crystallized organic compounds exist

which give x-ray diffraction patterns satisfactory as a means of identification when their pattern data are available. Most of the steroid group of compounds fall into this category. Bernal, Crowfoot, and Fankuchen ( 1 ) published crystallographic and optical data for some 80 sterol derivatives but did not include powder diffraction data. The purpose of this paper is to present powder data for 27 steroids. PROCEDURE

The melting point of each compound (Table I ) mas determined and checked with the literature to be certain of the purity and identity of these steroids. The crystals were powdered in a

mortar to a fineness of about 200 mesh. The powders were placed in thin wall plastic tubes of 0.01-mm. wall thickness and 0.2-mm. diameter ( 2 , 3 ) . The mounted samples were exposed to nickel filtered copper radiation produced a t 35 KVP and 20-ma. current for 5 hours in Norelco (North American Philips Co., Inc., Mount Vernon, N. Y . )of 114.59-mm. diameter, Debye-Scherrer cameras. The patterns (Figure 1 ) were recorded on Kodak No-Screen x-ray film, developed for 5 minutes a t 68’ F. in Kodak x-ray developer. Relative intensities ( I / Z l ) of the pattern lines (Table 11) were determined by visual estimation with the strongest line noted as 10. The d values are given in Angstrom units with the copper radiation weighted wavelength value of 1.5418 A. used as the basis of spacing calculations. The wider use of the x-ray method of analysis for organic compounds should supplement melting point determinations and the use of infrared absorption analysis ( 4 ) . A distinct advantage of this method is that very small quantities of sample are requiredone milligram is usually sufficient for an analysis. Visual comparison with standard diffraction patterns usually (Figure 1) has been found sufficient for identification of these steroids, without resort to d value calculation. LITERATURE CITED

Infrared Spectra of Alkyl Hydroperoxides HOMER R. WILLIAMS and HARRY S. MOSHER Department of Chemistry, Stanford University, Stanford, Calif.

The infrared spectra of 17 alkyl hydroperoxides, both primary and secondary, have been recorded between 2 and 15 microns. In each case the hydroperoxide showed a characteristic but rather weak absorption in the region 11.4 to 11.8 microns, which has been previously correlated with the oxygen-oxygen stretching vibration. This is a region in which some of the corresponding alcohols also absorb and thus i t is not a unique means of characterizing the hydroperoxide. All primary and secondary alkyl hydroperoxides showed absorption in the 12.0- to 12.5-micron region. A most interesting alternating pattern is shown by normal alkyl hydroperoxides in this region; those which had an even number of carbon atoms (butyl through decyl) showed two maxima (at about 12.1 and 12.4 microns) while the odd-numbered members of the series showed a single maximum at about 12.3 microns.

S

TUDY of the infrared spectra of hydroperoxides has been hindered by lack of sufficient examples of pure members of

this class. The availability of many new primary and secondary alkyl hydroperoxides (9) has permitted a more extensive study than was previously possible ( 3 , 4,7 ) . I n the present study the infrared spectra of nine primary and eight secondary pure liquid alkyl hydroperoxides (9) were recorded in the range 2 to 15 microns. The spectra of the corresponding alcohols were taken in each case for comparison. The important featuree of these spectra are recorded in Tables I to IV and Figures 1 to 7 .

EXPERIMEYTAL

Materials. The spectra were taken in each case on analytically pure (determined by combustion) alkyl hydroperoxides made by the methods outlined previously (9). The samples were used soon after preparation and were stored in the dark and cold until ready for use. The determinations were made without solvent using both a 0.003-inch polyethylene spacer and a thinner film which resulted when no spacer was employed. The spectra for both thicknesses are represented in Figures 1, 2, 3,and 4. Spectral Determinations. All spectra Fere determined on the Perkin-Elmer double beam recording Model 21 infrared spectro-
