- 27. Which of the following statements about cholesterol is not correct? CH3 CH3 H. d но Cholesterol (a) Cholesterol is a steroid that contains a tetracyclic ring system. (b) Cholesterol is a steroid that contains 8 chiral carbons and can form 28 or 256 stereoisomers. (c) Each atom or group attached to a ring-junction carbon (i.e., carbons a -e) is in a trans or axial position. Because of this the tetracyclic ring system is mostly flat.
