| Abstract: | The mass spectra of methyl, n-butyl, t-butyl, phenyl and cyclohexyl boronates of various classes of steroid are reported and discussed. Steroid types represented are 17α, 21-dihydroxy-20-ketones, 17α, 20, 21-triols, 17α, 20-diols, 20, 21-ketols. Each gives rise to characteristic fragmentation modes, although derivatives of the 20α- and 20β-hydroxy compounds have similar spectra. |
