The quaternion algebra of degree 2 over a commutative ring as defined by S. Parimala and R. Sridharan is generalized to a separable cyclic extension B[j] of degree n over a noncommutative ring B. A characterization of such an extension is given, and a relation between Azumaya algebras and Galois extensions for B[j] is also obtained.
