Spectral observations were carried out using the INT, Radcliffe and Tenerife telescopes and the UCL grating spectrometer. The 8 - 13 micron spectra of a number of compact H 2 regions are consistent with a simple model of a warm source surrounded by a cold envelope of obscuring material. The same absorption curve applies to the emitting and absorbing matter and appears to be independent of the particular source. Ionized neon was detected in the galactic center source Sgr A (West), confirming the thermal nature of this source; the neon abundance appears to be normal.
