Abstract: Let $ KG$ be the group ring of a group $ G$ over a commutative ring $ K$ with unity. The rings $ KG$ are described for which $ xx^\sigma=x^\sigma x$ for all $ x=\sum_{g\in G}\alpha_gg\in KG$, where $ x\mapsto x^\sigma=~\sum_{g\in G}\alpha_gf(g)\sigma(g)$ is an involution of $ KG$; here $ f: G\to U(K)$ is a homomorphism and $ \sigma$ is an antiautomorphism of order two of $ G$.
