    Let \(G\) be a finite group and \(\text{OC}(G)\) the set of order components of \(G\) [\textit{G.-Y. Chen}, J. Algebra 185, No. 1, 184-193 (1996; Zbl 0861.20018)]. In this paper the authors prove that \(^2D_n(2)\) where \(n=2^m+1\geq 5\) can be uniquely determined by its set of order components. A main consequence of this result is the validity of Thompson's conjecture for the groups under consideration.
