Abstract: We prove the non-existence of Hopf orders over number rings for two families of complex semisimple Hopf algebras. They are constructed as Drinfel'd twists of group algebras for the following groups: An, the alternating group on n elements, with ngeq5; and S2m, the symmetric group on 2m elements, with mgeq4 even. The twist for An arises from a 2-cocycle on the Klein four-group contained in A4. The twist for S2m arises from a 2-cocycle on a subgroup generated by certain transpositions which is isomorphic to mathbbZ2m. This provides more examples of complex semisimple Hopf algebras that can not be defined over number rings. As in the previous family known, these Hopf algebras are simple.
