Abstract: Let $GO(2n)$ be the general orthogonal group scheme (the group of orthogonal similitudes). In the topological category, Y. Holla and N. Nitsure determined the singular cohomology ring $H_{msing}^{\ast }(BGO(2n,mathbbC),mathbb{F}_2)$ of the classifying space $BGO(2n,mathbbC)$ of the corresponding complex Lie group $GO(2n,mathbbC)$ in terms of explicit generators and relations. The author of the present note showed that over any algebraically closed field of characteristic not equal to $2$, the smooth-'etale cohomology ring $H_{msm{-}^{\prime }et}^{\ast }(BGO(2n),mathbb{F}_2)$ of the classifying algebraic stack $BGO(2n)$ has the same description in terms of generators and relations as the singular cohomology ring $H_{msing}^{\ast }(BGO(2n,mathbbC),mathbb{F}_2)$. Totaro defined for any reductive group $G$ over a field, the Chow ring $A_G^{\ast }$, which is canonically identified with the ring of characteristic classes in the sense of intersection theory, for principal $G$-bundles, locally trivial in 'etale topology. In this paper, we calculate the Chow group $A_{GO(2n)}^{\ast }$ over any field of characteristic different from $2$ in terms of generators and relations.
