In this paper, we study the monogenity of K. More precisely, we provide some explicit conditions on a and b for which K is not monogenic. As an application, if b≡-1(mod32)\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$$b\equiv -1 \pmod {32}$$\end{document}, then the pure number field K=Q(b8)\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$$K= \mathbb{Q}(\sqrt[8]{b})$$\end{document} is not monogenic. We also construct a class of irreducible trinomials whose roots generate monogenic octic number fields. Finally, we illustrate our results by giving some examples.
