We present high-resolution infrared echelle spectroscopy for the globularclusters Palomar 6 and M71. Our mean heliocentric radial velocity of Palomar 6is +180.6 +/- 3.2 km sec/s and is 20 km/s lower than that found by Minniti in1995. Contrary to the previous metallicity estimates using low-resolutionspectroscopy, our results show that Palomar~6 has an intermediate metallicitywith [Fe/H] = -1.0 +/- 0.1 and is slightly more metal-poor than M71. Reasonablechanges in the surface temperature or the microturbulent velocity of the modelatmospheres do not affect [Fe/H] at more than +/- 0.2 dex. In spite of its highmetallicity, based on the spectrum of a single cluster member the [Si/Fe] and[Ti/Fe] ratios of Palomar~6 appear to be enhanced by 0.4 dex and 0.5 dex,respectively, suggesting that the Galactic inner halo may have experienced avery rapid chemical enrichment history.Comment: Accepted for publication in AJ (Nov. 2004
