QUESTION:

A solution was prepared using \(0.0010 \mathrm{~g}\) of an unknown steroid (of molecular weight around 255) in \(100 \mathrm{~mL}\) of ethanol. Some of this solution was placed in a \(1-\mathrm{cm}\) cell, and the UV spectrum was measured. This solution was found to have \(\lambda_{\max }=235 \mathrm{~nm}, \text { with } A=0.74 \).


(a) Compute the value of the molar absorptivity at \(235 \mathrm{~nm}\).


(b) Which of the following compounds might give this spectrum?
