Abstract
A RECENT communication discussed the infra-red spectra and proton magnetic resonance experiments on some hydroxides and hydrous oxides1. We found in the so-called ferric hydrate OH-groups beside free water (adsorbed), that is to say, this compound may be defined as iron(III) hydroxide. In my own communication, the drawing for the infra-red spectrum (Fig. 1) was incorrect; the centre of gravity of curve I should be between 3.1 and 3.2µ.
