1. Introduction. Let F be a number field and OF the ring of its integers. Many results are known about the group KOF, the tame kernel of F. In particular, many authors have investigated the 2-Sylow subgroup of KOF. As compared with real quadratic fields, the 2-Sylow subgroups of KOF for imaginary quadratic fields F are more difficult to deal with. The objective of this paper is to prove a few theorems on the structure of the 2-Sylow subgroups of KOF for imaginary quadratic fields F. In our Ph.D. thesis (see [11]), we develop a method to determine the structure of the 2-Sylow subgroups of KOF for real quadratic fields F. The present paper is motivated by some ideas in the above thesis.
