The strength of the 9.7 microns absorption band in the radiation from the galactic center is used to deduce a range of measures of the visual extinction from 20 to 400 magnitudes. A possible way of arriving at a unique value of the visual extinction consistent with variations in the wavelength dependence of extinction as a function of grain characteristics is indicated. The mass of silicates deduced from the 9.7 microns band appears to imply a gradient of metallicity towards the galactic center.
