We analyze recently published results about the Aharonov-Bohm effect for bound states from the interactionof the magnetic quadrupole moment of a neutral particle with axial fields. We show that the eigenvalues obtainedby the authors from an arbitrary truncation of the Frobenius power series correspond to more than one model and,consequently, are unsuitable for drawing any sound physical conclusion. In addition, the prediction of allowedoscillator frequencies is a mere consequence of the truncation condition just mentioned.
