Abstract: In this note, we construct a 2-basic set of the alternating group A_n. To do this, we construct a 2-basic set of the symmetric group sym_n with an additional property, such that its restriction to A_n is a 2-basic set. We adapt here a method developed in cite{BrGr} for the case when the characteristic is odd. One of the main tools is the generalized perfect isometries defined by K"ulshammer, Olsson and Robinson in cite{KOR}.
