27. Following the argument of Ref., one easily proves that the conventional 90 ° Cu-O-Cu superexchange is twice as large as the 180 ° superexchange (two and one Cu-O-Cu bridges, respectively)

44. The magnetic susceptibility of the uniform chain with the staggered anisotropy should depend on the direction of the applied field. Unfortunately, Ref. reports ESR measurements for two directions of the applied field only and does not allow to perform an extensive comparison with models involving the staggered anisotropy.
