Let \(L\) be a free Lie algebra on variables \(A,B\) over a field \(k\) of characteristic zero. The Drinfeld Lie algebra \({\mathfrak {grt}}_1( k)\) is the set of all elements \(\psi=\psi(a,b)\in L\) such that \( \psi(B,A)=-\psi(A,B),\) \( \psi(A,B)+\psi(B,-A-B)+ \psi(-B-A,A)=0, \) \( \psi^{12,3,4}-\psi^{1.23.4} + \psi^{1,2,34}= \psi^{2,3,4} + \psi^ {1,2,3}. \) Let \(L'\) be the derived Lie subalgebra in \(L\). For any odd index [\textit{V. Drinfeld}, Leningr. Math. J., 2 829--860 (1991; Zbl 0728.16021)] constructed an element \(\sigma_n\in { \mathfrak {grt}}_1( k)\) whose image in \(L'/[L',L']\) coincides with \( (\{\text{ad}(A+B))^n- (\text{ad} A)^n-(\text{ad} B)^n\}[A,B]\). It is shown that for any homogeneous element \(\psi\in { \mathfrak {grt}}_1( k)\) of odd degree \(n\) the image of \(\psi\) in \(L'/[L',L']\) is proportional to the image of \(\sigma_n\). There are some applications of this results to the theory of \(\Gamma\)-functions.
