Let f(x)=xn+ax2+bx+c ∈ \Z[x] be an irreducible polynomial with b2=4ac and let K=\Q(θ) be an algebraic number field defined by a complex root θ of f(x). Let \ZK deonote the ring of algebraic integers of K. The aim of this paper is to provide the necessary and sufficient conditions involving only a,c and n for a given prime p to divide the index of the subgroup \Z[θ] in \ZK. As a consequence, we provide families of monogenic algebraic number fields. Further, when \ZK ≠ \Z[θ], we determine explicitly the index [\ZK : \Z[θ]] in some cases.
