review text: The paper contributes results on the problem when the normalizer \(N_U(G)\) of \(G\) in the group \(U\) of units of the integral group ring \(\mathbb{Z} G\) of a finite group \(G\) satisfies \(N_U(G)=G\cdot Z(U)\), where \(Z(U)\) is the centre of \(U\). By definition, an automorphism \(\rho\) of \(G\) is called a Coleman automorphism (CA) if \(\rho\) preserves the conjugacy classes of \(G\) and is conjugation with some \(g_P\in G\) on the Sylow subgroups \(P\) of \(G\), and if \(\rho^2\) is inner. Theorems: 1. Let \(G\) be metabelian, \(B\rightarrowtail G\twoheadrightarrow A\). If \(P=B_2\rtimes D\) and \(C_{A_2}(B_2)=C_{A_2}(b_2)\) for some \(b_2\in B_2\), where \(P\) is a Sylow 2-subgroup of \(G\) and \(B_2\), \(A_2\) are such of \(B\) and \(A\), respectively, then every CA of \(G\) is inner; in particular, \(N_U(G)=G\cdot Z(U)\). 2. If the Sylow 2-subgroup of \(A\) is cyclic, then every CA is again inner. (Above, \(C\) denotes centralizers.) It follows that \(N_U(G)=G\cdot Z(U)\) for split metabelian groups \(G\) with a dihedral Sylow 2-subgroup. Related papers are [\textit{M. Hertweck}, Habilitation thesis, Stuttgart (2003); \textit{Y.
